History

The chapel-cultural house, built in 1928 by the Apostolic Governor Mayer Antal in honour of St Joseph, on the newly built-up outskirts of Várad-Olaszi, was taken over by Lazarist Fathers and later by the Social Brothers. After the nationalization, it was part of the Cathedral parish and became an independent parish in 1989.
