History
In 1579, Prince Báthory István of Transylvania founded a Jesuit school in Kolozsmonostor. A few years later, he moved the Jesuits to Kolozsvár. In 1580, the order received the buildings of the former Franciscan monastery, also on Farkas Street. From 1581 they intended to establish a college in the former Franciscan monastery. In 1603 the Jesuits were expelled from Kolozsvár. In 1615 they returned to Kolozsmonostor.
When Emperor Leopold I returned the Jesuits their properties, the order reopened their school in Kolozsvár and began large-scale building works. The seminary building, which was completed in 1728, was erected from a donation by Apor István.
After the Jesuit order was dissolved by the Pope in 1773, the college became a state institution under the name Collegium Theresianum. By decree of Empress Maria Theresa of 7 June 1776, the scool was taken over by the Piarists. The official name of the institution became the Royal Academic Lyceum, which functioned as a university with faculties of law and medicine. The lectures were held in a building on the site of the present lyceum.
On 28 August 1784, Emperor Joseph II downgraded the college to a lyceum, in common with the universities of Austria. In 1787, when the decree came into force, the theological faculty was moved to Gyulafehervár, while the faculties of humanities, law and medicine and surgery continued to function unchanged. The Faculty of Law was abolished in 1849, the Faculty of Humanities in 1850, the Faculty of Medicine became an independent institution, and the Academic Lyceum continued its activities as a Catholic grammar school from 1850. On 3 August 1948, the monastic orders were abolished and denominational schools were nationalised. Since April 1999 it officially bears the name of its founder, Báthory István.
From 1727, the present building was the site of a one-storey grammar school of the Piarists, which was so badly damaged by a fire in 1789 that it had to be demolished. The present building was built by the Transylvanian Roman Catholic State between 1817 and 1821, based on designs by Friedrich Thallinger of Vienna, under the direction of Georg Winkler and Christian Kiermayer.
