Bod Péter Szobra Cernat

The Bod Péter sculpture,made by Bocskay Vince, was also inaugurated in the garden of the reformed church on 5 August 2001.

Bod Péter ( Felsőcsernáton ( Cernatul de Sus ),22 February 1712 - Magyarigen ( Ighiu ), 3 March 1769 ) was a reformed, 18th century clergyman, a literary historian, an erudite priest, considered one of the most educated minds of the age. The Magyar Athenas ( Hungarian Athenas ), a Hungarian literary historian encyclopaedia is related to his name. We also learned from him that „if it is not allowed to hurt the homeland, so it is a big sin not to be useful when you could be”. The scholar world kept him and his birthplace, Felsőcsernáton ( Cernatul de Sus ), in mind already in the 18.century.
