The Greek Catholic Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Lord (Catedrala greco-catolică Schimbarea la Față) was built in the Baroque style between 1775 and 1779 by the Minorite Order, the oldest branch of the Franciscans, under the patronage of the Austrian Empress Maria Theresa. For a long time it was the church of the Roman Catholic upper class of the city. In 1924 the Pope handed it over to the Greek Catholic Church united with Rome (Uniate), for which it now serves as a bishop's church. The Art Nouveau stained glass windows depicting saints are worth seeing. The nameplates have been removed because the people depicted are patron saints of Hungary and the reference to this was no longer desired by the Uniate Romanians.
