The Franciscan Church - Kolozsvar - Cluj Napoca

It was built between 1260 and 1290, on the site of an older Catholic church destroyed during the Tatar invasions in 1241.In 1390, the Benedictine monks received the church. They extended it and built a small Gothic cloister near the church, with the help of Hunyadi János.In 1556, the Queen of Hungary, Izabella moved to the cloister and lived there with her son until 1557. =Wikipedia=
