History
The institute was built in 1910-1911 according to the plans of Hübner Jenő. In the pre-war period, it was one of the most modern school buildings in Transylvania (one of the first reinforced concrete buildings in Kolozsvár). The building was consecrated by Bishop Majláth Gusztáv on 10 December 1911. In 1914, construction of a dormitory was begun, which was consecrated in 1916, and a house for teachers and priests was built behind the Marianum in 1924.
In 1948, the Marianum ceased to exist after the nationalisation of the ecclesiastical schools, and the building was given to Bolyai University, which moved its humanities departments here.
