Brimming with the original wood and stone features, our beautifully restored traditional Saxon House retains the charming character of it’s 300 year history! Evidence shows that Michelsberger Haus dates from at least 1709, with an 1889 renovation by Johann Henning. Johann’s inscription can clearly be seen carved into a mighty oak beam in “The Keller” breakfast room. Our own recent renovation, whilst retaining the unique history of the buildings, has embraced sustainable tourism by making Michelsberger Haus also ‘Eco Friendly’. It’s here where we warmly welcome you to enjoy a comfortable stay in an unique base, perfect for exploring our fascinating region!

One of the oldest dwellings in beautiful Cisnadioara village, Michelsberger Haus is a central feature of the main square. The village itself is home to the oldest Fortified Church in Transylvania, which has a fascinating history of its own. Records show that in 1223 local Magistrate, Domnal Gozelinus, gifted the place to the monastery in nearby Carta. Thus, he hoped to secure his place in the hearts of the monks but more importantly, his place amongst the angels in heaven. Whilst exploring the picturesque lanes and pretty pathways it’s also worth visiting the central Saxon Church, dating from 1764. Here, amid the beautifully painted pews and vaulted ceilings, you will find the oldest functional organ in Transylvania. Most Sundays you will also hear it in service during morning prayers.
