The coronation of Ferdinand of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, King Ferdinand I of Romania since October 10, 1914, and his wife Maria was the trigger for the construction of the new Trinity Cathedral in the center of the citadel of Alba Iulia in 1921 and 1922. Delayed by the turmoil of the First World War, Ferdinand and Maria's ceremonial coronation took place here on October 15, 1922.

The cathedral was built between 1921 and 1922 to commemorate the cathedral of Michael the Brave, the first unifier of Romanians, and remains the symbol of national and spiritual unity for centuries. “King Ferdinand I and Queen Maria, during whose course this foundation was established, were crowned rulers of Greater Romania here on October 15, 1922”:
