On the upper reaches of the Târnava Mică (Little Kokel) , the county road (Drum județean) DJ 142 and the Blaj – Târnăveni – Praid railway line , the place Coroisânmărtin is located 28 kilometers northeast of the town of Târnăveni (Saint Martin) and 31 kilometers south of the district capital Târgu Mureș (Neumarkt am Mieresch) away.

history

The place Coroisânmărtin was first mentioned in 1329. Apart from a few archaeological finds from the Late Bronze Age on the area of the incorporated village of Odrihei ( Vámosudvarhely in Hungarian ), there are no notable finds in the area of the municipality of Coroisânmărtin.

In the Kingdom of Hungary , today's municipality belonged to the district of Erzsébetváros ( Dumbrăveni ) in Klein-Kokelburg County , then to the historic Târnava-Mică district and, from 1950, to today's Mureş district.

In 1962, in the incorporated village of Coroi (Kruden), the Transylvanian Saxon homeland researcher Theobald Streitfeld and the writer Harald Krasser found the Madonna from the Mühlbach Altar in the chapel of the destroyed Hungarian estate of Sigismund Kornis - a former governor of Transylvania . This was then returned by Áron Márton , the Catholic bishop of Alba Iulia , to the Evangelical Church in Sebeş.
