History

Next to the cathedral is the palace of the Serb Orthodox Bishopric of Temesvár. Its foundation stone was laid in 1745, under the Serb Bishop Gheorghie Popovici, and it was built in Byzantine style. In 1905-1906 it was rebuilt according to the plans of Székely László, incorporating elements of Serbian and Russian religious architecture.
