About

The manor, as well as the whole village, belonged to the Apafi noble family. In the 18th century, when they had no more heirs, the manor has been taken over by the Bethlen noble family. Throughout time, the Apafi house has been changing its shape and was several times renovated in 1830 the owner of the time, Graf Haller. In 1920 the manor was transfered to the Saxon community, then transformed into the cultural house of the village, then seized by communists in 1949.

After discovering in the archives of the Hungarian state several detailed inventories that marked the changes brought to the Mâlâncrav estate between 1679 and 1778, German architect Jan Hulsemann and contractors Fritz Klutsch and Ernst Linzing brought the manor back to its original 18th century aspect, using traditional techniques and materials. Once the architecture and finishes were restored, British designer David Mlinaric was in charge of the interior design, respecting the same spirit: most of the objects inside the rooms of the manor – weave work, lace work, furniture pieces and ironware – are of local provenience, either originally found inside the manor, or brought from the nearby villages.

The village, with its irregular network of alleys, is situated on a hill on which a three-nave Romanesque basilica with a west tower was built, dedicated to St. Martin in the 13th century. The entrance to the church hall is through a plain west portal with semicircular archivolt and round-arched piers. The nave is spanned by a cross-ribbed vault supported by transoms and pilasters. Around 1500, a sacristy was built to the south of the chancel. In the 18th century, the aisles were raised and the brick galleries were installed.  More information can be found on Agramonia.

The church was originally built in gothic architecture, and later in the 16th century, fortified to fit the defensive requirements at the time. The outer wall was also constructed during fortification of the church. Although much of the altar inside was crafted 19th century and later build in, there is still some reminisce of this late gothic altar in the city parish church in Sibiu. The organ is dated to the year of 1800.  More information can be found on Agramonia.

The church is situated in a side valley of the Hartibaci valley and has strong castle walls to all sides. The classical decorations inside are lavish and the tower stretches high. The monument dates to the 13th century and has been constantly enlarged. The fortified church in Dealul Frumos is one of the most conclusive examples of church-fortresses in southern Transylvania, owing to its position in the village and in the landscape and, above all, to the extent medieval structure and the harmonious relations established between the individual parts and the whole fortified church.  More information can be found on Agramonia.

The history of the church, originally built in Romanesque style, goes back to the first half of the 13th century. Most fortified churches in Transylvania had their belltower or donjon added later, but the church in Movile had already a belltower before the fortification. Instead the donjon was built above the choir, something very uncommon here. Today the church and its ensemble are threatened by decay.  More information can be found on Agramonia.

Biserica în sine a fost construită în secolul al XIV-lea, în stil gotic. A fost fortificată în anii 1500. Apoi a fost fortificată și mai mult cu un zid de apărare la mijlocul secolului al XVI-lea. Mijlocul și corul sunt amândouă mai mari decât în cele mai multe alte castele bisericești și este relativ bine întreținută. Donjonul său domină orizontul orașului Iacobeni. Mobilierul din biserică este în cea mai mare parte din secolele XVII și XVIII. Există, de asemenea, un epitaf deasupra amvonului care îl înfățișează probabil pe Michael Schullerus, care a murit în 1748. Amvonul a fost construit în secolul al XVI-lea.  Mai multe informații găsiți pe Agramonia.
