Abstract: After the election of Mihály Apafi I. as prince of Transylvania, he didn’t hesitated to rebuild the country in ruins. Mihály Apafi I. through diplomatic channels, worked to rescue and prosper the statehood of the principality, its cultural and ecclesiastical institutions. For a prince who has manifold activities, one of the most feasible paths in the given political, economic and social context was the material and moral support of scientific, cultural life, the protection and supervision of the Reformed Churches in Transylvania. Whith his profound religion and theological training, he defended and supervised the Transylvanian Reformed Church life in the second half of the 17th century. The aim of my essay is the presentation of the prince’s church protect activities and church supervison activities.
