History
In 1788, by order of Emperor Joseph II, the Piarist grammar school in Szentanna was moved to the monastery of the Bosnian Franciscans in Temesvár. The new building of the eight-grade high school was built in 1909 according to the designs of Székely László, Temesvár's chief architect, and Baumgarten Sándor from Budapest. In addition to the school, it included a monastery and a chapel. The chapel was consecrated on 20 January 1912. During the Second World War, the German, then the Romanian and Soviet armies occupied the building and the school equipment was completely destroyed. The school was nationalized in 1948. In 1992, the "Gerhardinum" Roman Catholic Theological Lyceum was opened there. The Piarist Order was only able to recover its stolen property in 2006, and today it houses the Pelbárt Roman Catholic Theological Lyceum in Temesvár.
