The architecturally homogeneous Gothic basilica type temple, whose nave is nearby twice as high as the aisles, bears sinns of the Danube style. The sanctuary of this massive brick structure faces east. Buttresses supporting the high walls alternate with Gothic windows decorated with original stone traceries. The largest Gothic window, adorned with rich traceries and stained glass, is at the church front.
In this cathedral is buried the Romanian-Hungarian humanist and scholar Nicolaus Olahus - Nicholas, the Vlach.
