Church of Saint John the Baptist

The Jesuit monks arrived in Tirgu Mures, thanks to the mission of the churches in Vienna, and built a church similar to the churches in Rome. The church plan is rectangular. The main ship is joined by 3-3 chaps on the side. The altar is right, sitting in the middle surrounded by a sacristy and chapel, being orthodox and galleries at the upper level. In the basement of the church, under the chapels, there is a crypt where several important people of the Catholic community are buried. The Parish Building was known as the monastery of the Jesuit monks. The building deserves special attention due to the fact that it is among the few buildings built in the 17th century. Here is the oldest text on the wall of an edifice in the city.
