History

In 1864, the Diocese of Csanád invited the first nuns of the order Sorores Pauperes de Nostra Domina to Temesvár to promote the education of children. By 1881, the new monastery and school were completed, and the monastery church was built in 1894 in the neo-Romanesque style. In 1948 the communists dissolved the order. It was re-established in 1992 and the nuns returned to the town.
