Șura Mare (German: Großscheuern; Hungarian: Nagycsűr) is a commune located in Sibiu County, Transylvania, Romania.
It is composed of two villages, Hamba (Hahnbach; Kakasfalva) and Șura Mare.
It was built in the 13th century (the tower is from around 1300), and fortified in 1495, apparently as a response to Ottoman attacks in 1493.
The Romanesque basilica in Hamba was built in the 13th century, however, only fragments of the tower survived.
