The Cathedral Basilica of St. Mary is the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Oradea, begun in 1752 by Giovanni Battista Ricca and completed in 1780 by Franz Anton Hillebrandt in a classicising Baroque style. Inside are ceiling frescoes by Johann Nepomuk Schöpf and Ferenc Storno and a reliquary of King Saint Ladislaus.
The Moon Church is a Romanian Orthodox church on Union Square, built between 1784 and 1790 to plans by Jakab Éder in a late Baroque style with classicist details. Its tower holds a mechanism made by Georg Rueppe in 1793, a half-gilded, half-black sphere that turns to show the phases of the moon. It served as the Orthodox cathedral from 1920 to 2012.
