The Copsa Mare Church is located in the homonymous village, a few kilometers east of Biertan.
Lost in the hills of Transylvania, the Copsa Mare Church was built in the early fourteenth century, while work on the protective wall was begun two centuries later. The decision to build such a large church with a view of the village was driven by the residents of the village, who were envious of the size of the fortified church of their neighbors, Biertan!
