Early Sfântu Gheorghe History
Sfântu Gheorghe is one of the oldest cities in Transylvania, as settlement
was first documented there in 1332.
The city's name is derived from the
patron saint of a local church, Saint George. It was an economic and
administrative center for the Hungarian county Háromszék, now Covasna and
Braşov counties. In the second half of the 19th century, Sfântu Gheorghe
developed both a textile and a cigarette factory. Sfântu Gheorghe is a
center for the Szeklers in the cultural region known as Székelyföld, and
is home to the Székely National Museum. The city hosts two market fairs
each year.
