Coronation Cathedral, Alba Iulia
The Coronation Cathedral ((ルーマニア語、モルドバ語():Catedrala Încoronării)), dedicated to the Holy Trinity and the Holy Archangels Michael and Gabriel, is a Romanian Orthodox cathedral located at 16 Mihai Viteazul Street, Alba Iulia, Romania. Built soon after and in commemoration of the Union of Transylvania with Romania, it is the seat of the Romanian Orthodox Archdiocese of Alba Iulia.
==Background==
The cathedral and surrounding buildings were raised in the western part of the Alba Iulia Citadel, on the site of a gatehouse near the Roman Plateau. It was thought of as a continuation of the former metropolitan seat at Alba Iulia (then called ''Bălgrad''), where Michael the Brave built a stone church in 1597. When the citadel was rebuilt in its current form in 1713-1714, the Habsburg authorities demolished this and its materials were used to build a new church near where the railway station is today. A wooden memorial church in the southeastern part of the citadel marks the site of the former metropolitan cathedral.〔 ("Catedrala Arhiepiscopală Ortodoxă Română din Alba Iulia" ) at the Romanian Orthodox Archdiocese of Alba Iulia site; accessed November 13, 2011〕
Built in 1921-1922, the cathedral was ready in time for the coronation of King Ferdinand and Queen Marie as monarchs of Greater Romania on October 15, 1922. This event, which took place in the same city where the Union of Transylvania with Romania occurred on December 1, 1918, was meant to give the union added symbolic and religious weight.〔〔 Gheorghe Fleșer and Alexandra M. Băiețan, ("Alba Iulia – Oraşul şi Monumentele sale" ) at the Association of Localities and Historic Art Zones of Romania site; accessed November 13, 2011〕 In commemoration, busts of the king and queen were placed on the grounds in 2008.〔
