The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Romania (Romanian: Biserica Evanghelică-Luterană din România; Hungarian: Romániai Evangélikus-Lutheránus Egyház; German: Evangelisch-Lutherische Kirche in Rumänien) is a Lutheran denomination in Romania. Many active congregations were founded over 450 years ago, and today the Church has 27,540 members. It is primarily a Hungarian-speaking denomination, with one diocese for Slovak-speaking parishes.
This church is not to be confused with the mainly Saxon, German-speaking Evangelical Church of the Augustan Confession.
