Transfiguration Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
The Transfiguration Cathedral exhibits baroque architectural elements with decorative ceiling murals painted by Ferenc Lohr in 1908 throughout its interior spaces.
The cathedral's construction occurred in 1778-1779 with financial support from Empress Maria Theresa of Austria after the initial tower collapsed due to engineering issues.
The structure contains seven monuments in Baroque and Empire styles commemorating prominent Armenian families who supported the church through Mass stipends.
Located at Bulevardul Eroilor 10 in Cluj-Napoca, the cathedral functions as the primary religious center for Romanian Greek-Catholics in the region.
The building displays an architectural fusion between Central European baroque design and Byzantine elements, including an iconostasis added in the 1920s.
