This
Catholic
Church,
which
was
previously
managed
by
the
Jesuits,
is
gorgeously
decorated
inside.
The
facilities
are
dated,
but
the
artwork
and
architecture
and
exquisite.
You
can
read
much
more
about
the
church
for
the
information
posted
below.
From
Sibiu
Tourism.
In
the
late
17th
century
the
Austrian
troops
arrived
to
Sibiu
also
brought
with
them
some
worthy
representatives
of
Catholicism,
the
Jesuit
monks.
The
Austrian
civil
servants
and
dignitaries
set
their
residences
in
the
city’s
Large
Square
and
formed
a
small
catholic
community.
Their
presence
in
the
city
and
the
free
manifestation
of
faith
implied
the
building
of
a
catholic
church.
The
edifice
was
consecrated
in
1733
and
in
1739
they
also
inaugurated
the
Jesuit
Convent,
which
is
nowadays
the
parish
house.
The
church
is
remarkable
due
to
its
early
Viennese
baroque
style,
with
simple
lines
at
the
exterior
and
a
richly
decorated
interior.
