Summary/Abstract: The Romanian Orthodox Parish in Budapest was founded in 1900. However, there is much information about the Romanians' spiritual activity until the beginning of the 20th century. As far as 1788-1789, Romanians, Serbs, Greeks, etc. were frequenting the same place of worship. From the end of the eighteenth century, for many reasons, the Greeks and Romanians wanted to have their own church. Even though the Romanians (together with the Greek brothers) managed to build a new church, they remained until 1864 under the jurisdiction of the Serbian bishops. In this church alliance, Romanians and Serbs Orthodox by faith, have been able to better promote the Eastern European and Balkan culture and spirituality within the Habsburg Empire.
