Evangelical Church of Augustan Confession in Romania
The
Evangelical Church of
Augustan Confession
in Romania
is a
German-speaking
Lutheran
church in
Romania
, mainly based in
Transylvania
. Its history goes back to the 12th century when the
Transylvanian Saxons
arrived in the region, then part of
Kingdom of Hungary
. The church has particularly close ties to the
Evangelical Lutheran Church of Romania
, which is mainly Hungarian-speaking (although it also uses German), and also cooperates with the much larger
Calvinist
Reformed Church in Romania
.
