The Michael Church was built shortly after 1200 and is therefore the oldest Romanesque church in Transylvania. In the period from 1204 to 1233, the area around the Michelsberg with the associated church was handed over by the Probstei Hermannstadt (Sibiu) in exchange for the area of Probstdorf (Stejeris) to King Andreas II. He gave the newly acquired land including the church to the Walloon clergyman Magister Gocelinus. This in turn left the area in 1223 to the Abbey of Kerz (Carta). The place Michelsberg was first mentioned in 1322, the church in 1223.
