history

Through the mediation of Bishop Alexander Csajághy of the diocese of Szeged-Csanád , six sisters of the Munich Order of the Poor School Sisters of Our Lady, founded in 1833, came to what was then Timişoara, who from then on called themselves the poor school sisters Notre Dame .

The subsequent Bishop Alexander Bonnaz founded a spacious building complex in the Josefstadt district between 1880 and 1889, consisting of the main building of the Institute of Poor School Sisters, the Notre-Dame Monastery Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and several school buildings.

The church was built in the neo-Romanesque style. It still serves mainly the nuns who hold the Holy Mass in German, every Sunday it is also held in Bulgarian.

The parish priest is the Bulgarian Monsignor Augustinov Gjuka , a papal chaplain (as of February 2007).
