The commune is crossed by national road DN13 [ro], which links Brașov with Sighișoara and Târgu Mureș.

Road DN13E [ro] branches off in Feldioara, passes through Sfântu Gheorghe (26 km (16 mi) to the east) and Covasna, and ends in Întorsura Buzăului.

The train stations in Feldioara and Rotbav serve the CFR Main Line 300, which connects Bucharest with the Hungarian border near Oradea.

[3] At "La Pârâuț" in Rotbav, archaeologists discovered an important Bronze Age site with six distinct occupation layers.

The castra of Feldioara was a fort in the Roman province of Dacia and part of the Limes Alutanus defensive system.

Between 1211 and 1225, Marienburg [de] ('Castle of Mary') was the Teutonic Order's quarter in Burzenland; their Ordensburg would later become a Saxon peasants' stronghold.

[7][8] A 1439 document states that the civilians of Feldioara built this fortress "with great financial and physical expenses" in order to protect their families and possessions.

[citation needed] On September 16, 1612, a battle was fought between the regular, mainly Hungarian army led by Báthori, and the Kronstadt host led by city judge Michael Weiss, consisting mainly of motivated, but militarily undertrained Saxons - burghers of Kronstadt and Burzenland peasants -, but also of local Hungarians and Szeklers, supported by Bathori's rival, András Géczi [hu], by cavalry sent by Radu Mihnea of Wallachia (the first to give way when they came under attack), and a hodgepodge of unreliable mercenaries.
