The church was damaged several times by a series of earthquakes. Originally, the church was surrounded by two walls - a ring of fortifications - and had two towers. The outer wall was demolished by the parish in 1786 and these stones were used to build, by order of Joseph II, a building intended for the German school, which stands next to the bell tower and is now used as a cantorial lacquer. In the cinerarium of the church, we can find the graves of several prominent figures associated with the name of Sf\u00e2ntu Gheorghe: among others, the mayors B\u00e1lint Cs\u00e1sz\u00e1r and Ferenc G\u00f6dri and J\u00f3zsef M\u00e1lik, the founding editor of the Sz\u00e9kely Nemzet daily newspaper, are buried here. The obelisk of J\u00f3zsef V\u00e1radi and Ferenc Bartalis, martyrs of 1848, was re-erected here. The cemetery arch of the monument is surrounded by a number of headstones. The first one was erected in 1983 by Mik\u00f3s alumni who graduated in 1943. Since then, the number of these headstones has grown to more than 70, commemorating the deceased teachers and students of the Sz\u00e9kely Mik\u00f3 College.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1451 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1-760x507.jpg 760w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01150_2022_2048px-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1452 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px-760x507.jpg 760w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/VCV_Vartemplom_Sepsi_MSA01051_2022_2048px.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The church probably acquired its present late Gothic form in 1547, when it was rebuilt at the expense of Patron Paul Daczo.
