Saint Catherine of Alexandria Church in Timișoara, Catholic church in Cetate district, Timișoara, Romania.
The church features Corinthian pilasters, arched windows, and a main altar painting created by Viennese artist Ferdinand Schiessl in 1761.
Originally built during King Charles Robert's reign, the church underwent reconstruction in 1889 under architect Camillo Sitte's direction following earthquake damage.
The church conducts services in German, Romanian, Slovak, and Hungarian languages, serving the multicultural Catholic community of Timișoara.
Located at Bolyai Janos Street number 6, the church welcomes visitors and holds regular Sunday masses for Slovak worshippers.
The church's foundation rests on oak pillars embedded in marshy terrain, a construction solution implemented during the 1753 rebuilding phase.
