Abstract
Fagaras Fortress had over the centuries of its existence, a special importance in Romanian history, knowing both moments of glory and decay. It is known the fact that it has been successively a strong defensive fortress, residence for Transylvania's Princes, military garrison and communist prison. Nevertheless, it is less known or is not at all known another aspect, the one that the fortress had in some moments after 1918 the function of shelter and refuge for foreign military and civilians, how it was the case of hundreds of Ukrainians afflicting wanderers, fled from the front of Bolshevik steamroller. Regarding the last of these aspects we will talk in the next pages, trying to shape this moment from the century-old existence of the fortress as coherent and consistent as possible, even if the archivist sources or the information from the local press of that period are minimal.
