History

The monastery and the girls' educational institution were consecrated in 1876 by Bishop Fogaras Mihály of Transylvania, who was born in Gyergyószentmiklós. The building was also built from his donation. After the Second World War, the Catholic school was nationalised by the communist regime, and in 1950 the vocational school moved to the school building built by Bishop Fogarasy. In 2003, the Catholic Church took back the building. Since 2006, vocational and theological education have been working together in harmony. Vocational education began in the town in 1783 in connection with woodworking.
