There's no other way to get to the site than by a vehicle. There's a free parking lot a few hundred meters away from the entrance. You can get to the from there either by walking through the village or using the forest path behind the parking lot (shorter way). Viscri is a great example to understand the history of this area and how people had to transform temples into fortresses to guard themselves. However, within the last couple of years, the nearby village transformed into great infrastructure to accommodate tourists - b&bs, coffee shops, restaurant - and all of these places created with good taste and respectful of the surroundings. Make sure to at least stroll around to appreciate their work. If the GPS takes you to the dead end road off the main street with a large parking lot on your left and a horse farm in front of you with pointers showing the direction to the (15 minutes on foot) drive anther half kilometer on the main street and you will see a conventional brown sign pointing to the the Biserica. Street parking is available. Viscri Fortified is a UNESCO site and is the best of the UNESCO fortified churches. Not only it's an impressive edifice and fortification it's very well maintained which is rarely the case with Transylvania fortified churches. A nice lady selling the tickets would give you a brief overview. And you can get to almost every corner of the including the bell tower and bastions. The Evangelic fortified in Viscri is amazing. In My opinion it is truly the main attraction of Viscri village. The fortification is wert well maintained and the also beautiful. They kept the charm and bine of the old days surely. It is truly a nice stop that will take you back in time. Strongly recommend for anyone who visit Viscri. We loved it! Amazing views, amazing history! We loved all the towers you can get in! To me, this was the best expeprience of all castles and forts in Romania. You can go to every corner of the place, imagine yourself on the top of the tower, noticing an enemy far far away, holding a bow...price is low and it is not crowded. Great It takes about 20 minutes on foot from the car park in the village of Viscri to the fortress church. The activities along the way and the cafes seemed more appealing than the itself. Beautiful place, it definitely deserves a visit if you're in the area. You can go up the stairs for a great view of the surroundings. I'd also like to share that this is not a place for people who are too lazy to walk 1 km from the parking lot to this church. It's also not a place for people who don't understand that this is a from the XIII century that should be preserved as is. I'm honestly baffled by the negative reviews because some people are unable to understand that we should keep these UNESCO sites as close to what they originally looked like as possible. It's part of their charm. Amazing Saxon fortified church, a must-see for people interested in the mediaeval history of the area and German-speaking settlement in Romania. Little museum worth a look.
