The Roman Catholic Piarist Church, originally the Jesuit Church in Cluj, is the first Catholic church built in Transylvania after the Protestant Reformation. It is also the first Baroque church building in the province. The Jesuits built it between 1718 and 1724, modeled on Austrian churches. The church formed an architectural ensemble with the Jesuit academic college, on whose site today stands the central building of the Babeș-Bolyai University. After the dissolution of the Jesuit order, the church was transferred to the Piarists. On Sundays, liturgies are held in Romanian, Hungarian, and Italian. Cultural events are also held here; classical music concerts, in particular, benefit from a special atmosphere and distinctive sound.
