RO

Biserica cu lună, construită între anii 1784 şi 1790, în stil baroc cu influenţe neoclasice este Catedrala Episcopiei Ortodoxe din Oradea. Planurile au fost realizate de arhitectul Éder Jakab, iar picturile interioare de fraţii Alexandru şi Arsenie Teodorovici şi de Paul Murgu.

În turnul-clopotniţă înalt de 55 m, sub orologiu se află o sferă cu diametrul de 3 m, vopsită jumătate în negru, jumătate în auriu. Cu ajutorul unui mecanism, bila se roteşte în funcţie de mişcarea de rotaţie a Lunii în jurul Pământului, redând prin rotirea sa toate fazele lunii. Mecanismul executat în 1793 de ceasornicarul Georg Rueppe, funcţionează şi astăzi.
