  • Lepers' Church (Biserica Leproşilor in Romanian) is another important monument in the Târnava River bank of Sighișoara, Mures County in Romania. It is located In the extreme northwest of the old neighbourhood of . The church has reduced proportions, and it is believed that it was built in the 15th century. In 1507, a shelter for people with leprosy began operation next to the church. Since lepers were not allowed to enter the church, a pulpit was built on the west side, just near the entrance, from which the priest preached to the patients in the churchyard. The last substantial changes were made in the late 19th century when railways were built a few meters from the church. On this occasion the wall was demolished completely, the territory around the church was elevated and the windows of the north face were obstructed. Above the altar of this church there is a beautiful painting, "Jesus and the Children”, painted by in 1882 in a naturalistic style. * v * t * e (en)
