The Prejmer Peasant Fortress, which houses the local Fortified Church, is one of the best preserved fortifications in Europe and the oldest historical monument in Brasov. The Teutonic Knights began building the Gothic-style fortress in 1211 and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The fortress is in the shape of a circle surrounding the Evangelical Church, with walls 12 metres high and 3-4 metres thick.

The Orthodox church dedicated to St. Peter and Paul was built in 1769, during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa and her son Joseph, according to the inscription above the entrance in Cyrillic letters. It was built on the site of a 1601 wooden church. In 1769, a second church was built, which still stands today with minor modifications.

The Fortified Evangelical Church of Prejmer, surrounded by high walls, is one of the most famous evangelical churches in Romania and Eastern Europe. The Prejmer Fortified Church is housed within the Prejmer Fortress. The church's plan, shaped like a Greek cross, was altered between 1512 and 1515 by adding two unequal side naves and enlarging the main nave. In 1461, a tall bell tower was built above the cross.
