About the place

The church was built in the 18th century, when Marghita's Catholic community was re-established. The historic monuments list dates it to 1772. It has a single tower on the facade with an onion-shaped cap and a round window, and a statue of the Virgin Mary in a niche by the entrance.

As the number of Catholics grew, a new Catholic church was started in 1993 and consecrated in 2000; the old church remained a monument. It is 100 m from the Reformed church and 150 m from the town hall.

Good to know

  • The inside is usually open during services.
  • The statue of the Virgin Mary is in the niche to the right of the entrance.
  • See it on the same walk as the Reformed church.
