Lonely Planet review for Lutheran Church
Apart from their two churches in the citadel, Sighişoara's Saxon community had a third Lutheran Church, deliberately sited well outside the city walls. The tin-spired church, sitting inauspiciously at a rail crossing just west of the train station off Str Libertăţii ('if that sermon don't knock the devil outa'em, the rattle of the trains will!'), was used in the 17th century as an isolation compound for victims of the plague and later of leprosy.
