The Transylvanian Book Festival is unique in its offering. Set in the beautiful Transylvanian countryside, it brings together writers who have been inspired by the landscape, peoples and history of this wonderful country.
This year, the festival takes place between 13 - 16 September, with topics covering Louis XIV and a rebel prince; The Sublime Porte and the Transylvanian Princes; Queen Marie of Romania; Architecture in Romania between the wars and many more.
Surrounded by beech and oak forests and the tranquillity of this great medieval landscape – the last in Europe, writers and audiences will have the unrivalled opportunity for discussions and discoveries among the beautiful ancient Saxon villages of Copșa Mare, Biertan and Richiș, the latter of which will host the Festival. All three villages are linked by a narrow road along the valley with gently rolling hills, terraced for vines, rising on either side.
