Summary/Abstract: Analyses the so-called "people's church" in its centuries-old development. Belonging to the Transylvanian Saxon ethnicity was closely related to belonging to the lutheran confession. The author advocates a re-evaluation of the self-conception of the Transylvanian Saxon, lutheran parish in social sciences and theology as well.
