FR-416784, sent by Daniela.
Saint Michael's Church, in Unirii Square, was built at the end of the 14th century in the Gothic style of that period. It was only in the 19th century that the Neo-Gothic tower of the church was erected; it remains the tallest church tower in Romania to this day.
In front of the church is the equestrian statue of Matthias Corvinus, erected in honour of the locally born king of Hungary. - in: wikipedia
