Reformist Church in Huedin

The Reformist Church in Huedin was first constructed in the 13th century; however, it was not until the mid-15th century when the church took its current form, thanks to the patronage of the Banffy Family. The building was badly damaged and renovated on two occasions - late 17th and late 18th centuries. The Gothic-style church consists of three architectural components: the clocktower, the pronaos and nave, and the apse. A painted wooden ceiling masks the vaulting ribs; however, the nature of the windows and the buttresses are of clearly Gothic style. The ceiling is painted with geometric and allegorical motifs - the painted elements of the panels alternate between square and circular. Behind the altar is a beautiful organ, installed by István Kolonics of Târgul Secuiesc.
