Bruiu Fortified Church

In the first half of the 13th century, a Romanesque basilica with a west tower was built and dedicated to Saint Nicholas. The ground floor of the bell tower had a western portal and three semicircular arches facing the side aisles and the nave. In the second construction phase, the side aisles were demolished and a late Gothic star-ribbed vault was erected on rectangular buttresses in the nave. The chancel arch was given a pointed arch.
