"Uphill" Holy Trinity Orthodox church in Cluj-Napoca, Romanian Orthodox church in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

The Holy Trinity Orthodox Church stands on a hill at Bisericii Ortodoxe Street 10, featuring an octagonal nave and a 19-meter spire.

Two Aromanian merchants obtained permission from Vienna in 1790 to construct the church, completing it between 1795 and 1796 in Baroque style.

The church contains an iconostasis painted in 1796 by Constantin the Painter from Șcheii Brașovului as a gift from Brașov merchants.

The church remains accessible for visits and services, having undergone substantial restoration work between 2003 and 2010 to address structural issues.

From its consecration in 1796 until 1932, this building served as the only Orthodox church in Cluj, later becoming the first cathedral of the diocese.
