Sfântu Gheorghe (pronounced [ˈsfɨntu ˈɡe̯orɡe] ⓘ; Hungarian: Sepsiszentgyörgy or Szentgyörgy [ˈʃɛpʃisɛɲɟørɟ] ⓘ; Yiddish: סנט דזשארדזש; English lit.

: Saint George) is a city that serves as the seat of Covasna County in Transylvania, Romania.

Sfântu Gheorghe is one of the oldest urban settlements in Transylvania, the town first having been documented in 1332.

In the second half of the 19th century, Sepsiszentgyörgy witnessed the development of light industry, a textile and a cigarette factory being built.

After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920, it became part of the Kingdom of Romania and the seat of Trei Scaune County.

Near the end of that period, the Sfântu Gheorghe ghetto briefly existed in the town.

In September 1944, during World War II, Romanian and Soviet armies entered the town.

On 28 September 2024, a bust of Archpriest Aurel Nistor (1882-1974) was unveiled, by Moldovan sculptor Veaceslav Jiglițchi.
