Făgăraș is a city in central Romania, located in Braşov County. Romanians now form 91.3% of the population following Saxon and Hungarian emigration, the diverse background is still obvious. The most important attraction points in the city are the fortress, Radu Negru High school, the Reformed Church and the local Catholic church.
The name is alleged to derive from the Romanian word for “beech” (fag). Another source of the name is alleged to derive from the Hungarian language word for “partridge” (fogor). A more plausible explanation is that the name is given by Fogaras river coming from the Pecheneg “Fagar šu”, which means ash water. Another source of the name is given by folk etymology to be Hungarian, as the rendering of “wood” (fa) and “money” (garas), with legends stating that money made of wood had been used to pay the peasants who built the fortress around 1310.
