Things to do in Timisoara, Transylvania: The Best Churches & Cathedrals

May 19, 2022 Deane Carmody

Charming Timisoara is often referred to as “Little Vienna,” and indeed, Austrian influences are evident in the architecture, food and culture. This is a walking city, divided into squares that showcase stunning architectural gems. Downtown is reserved for pedestrians only, and the best time to visit is at twilight, when you can sip a hot wine as you stroll amid sparkling lights.

Timisoara Orthodox Cathedral

Reviewed By manderjones - England, United Kingdom

It would be a shame to make a visit to Timişoara without stopping by the the most impressive construction in town - Metropolitan Church. At first glance you could easily be beguiled into thinking it's older than it actually is. In fact, it was only completed two years into the Second World War in Moldovian style. There are prominent features of Byzantine architecture and the inside exudes sheer opulence. Besides marking the central point in town, its chimes reverberate around the city. The cathedral is built upon 5,000 oak supports and can house the same number of people. Inside display relics and many religious artifacts.

Millennium Church

Reviewed By Foodie_CST - Targu Jiu, Romania

I would say it's one the most beautiful churches in Timisoara so definitely worth the visit. It's also the second tallest building in the city after the Orthodox Cathedral in city center.
