Summary/Abstract: This article presents the administrative situation of the Saxon church in Reghin and its surroundings before the Lutheran Reformation, within the Catholic archdeaconry of Ozd. The second subchapter presents the divisions of land and property in the Reghin area during the 14th century. The queen was placed on noble land, following a royal donation in the thirteenth century. The „city” of Reghin was divided between the four sons of the magistrate Thomas de Losoncz, with a church built on each side. In addition, there was a church belonging to the Saxon population, as well as a temporary monastery.
