United States Embassy in Romania is investing half a million dollars in the restoration of the 14th Century Fortified Saxon Church in Alma Vii, Sibiu County. Donation was made on Thursday to Mihai Eminescu Trust, at a ceremony attended by US Ambassador to Romania, Hans Klemm.

Alma Vii project, initiated by Mihai Eminescu Trust Foundation, has won the largest donation from the US Ambassadors Fund for Cultural Preservation Program, following a competition that involved projects from around the world, said US Ambassador Hans Klemm.

Ambassador Hans Klemm:This investment is not just in a building, it is for the Alma Vii community. Out of all the projects from all the US Embassies, project of Mihai Eminescu Trust Foundation has received the largest funding.

Attending the event in the village of Alma Vii, Romanian Culture Minister Daniel Breaz announced that the Ministry will finance feasibility studies for the restoration of 10 fortified churches in Transylvania. Romania has the capacity to restore many of the patrimony buildings, but their owners rarely submit the needed projects to get financing, Minister Breaz said.
