Seligstadt / Seliștat (Rom.) is located in the southern part of Transylvania, in the heart of the Harbach-Highlands. This region is assigned to the “Natura 2000” Protective Area due to its ethnic flora and fauna.
Seligstadt is best reached from Fogarasch / Făgăraş. It’s a 30 km drive towards north, over Bekokten/ Bărcut. If you come that way, the guesthouses are on the right side of the road, directly beside the church-fortress. You can also reach Seligstadt from Schäßburg / Sighișoara (45 km); in Henndorf / Brădeni you have to turn in the direction of Retersorf / Retiş. You have to schedule extra time for both travel alternatives, the roads are partially in need of repair – good dampers are advisable. And be careful: there are sheep, goats and donkeys on the road!
The parsonage in Fogarasch offers a transport service to those who want to take the journey from Fogarasch to Seligstadt. Timely request is asked for.
