Geocache Description:


[ENG]

The Roman Catholic Cathedral is part of the minorite compound, built in the center of Arad. The building’s history begins in 1902, when the construction of the new building started after the demolition of the old baroque church that had occupied the site. The works ended in 1904, while numerous details of the church’s interior could not be finished earlier than in 1911: the altar ornamentation, mural painting 
and stained glass windows.
The author of the project for this beautiful building is local architect Emil Tabacovits.
The church was rendered in eclectic style, with elements of Baroque, Classicism and Renaissance. The main entrance is framed by four massive columns with corinthian capitals. Above the entrance, there is a copy of Michelangelo’s Pieta statue. The building measures 43 m in length and 17 m in width.

This cache was created during an Erasmus + youth exchange project “Uncover to discover”.
