Biertan, the Saxon village in the heart of Transylvania, now fits in your pocket. An interactive map shows you everything that matters: the UNESCO-listed fortified church, places to stay, where to eat, where to find local products, and the events happening in the village. It is also your starting point for the neighbouring villages of Richiș and Copșa Mare. The app helps you discover the village at your own pace. More than a guide, it's an invitation to get to know Biertan as it really is: unhurried, authentic, and full of stories centuries in the making. ------ The application is part of the project "Dotarea și digitalizarea infrastructurii turistice din comuna Biertan", funded by European funds under Romania's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), Component C11 – Tourism and Culture, Reform R1 – Operationalisation of Destination Management Organisations (DMOs).
