Synopsis

With the Peace Treaty of Trianon, 103,000 square kilometres were given to Romania. After the occupation of the territory, the Romanian authorities liquidated the Hungarian public administration and the schools. They only did not know what to do with the Hungarian churches. In 1921, the Romanian land reform law was passed, and it was a huge blow to the churches because not only the land holdings were confiscated, but the buildings standing on them as well. Gyula Glattfelder, the Roman Catholic bishop of Temesvár, protested the land reform most intensively. Because of this, he was subjected to open attacks both in Timişoara (Temesvár) and Bucharest. This eventually led to the fact that the Romanian authorities forced him to leave Timişoara in March 1923 and to move his episcopal seat to Szeged.
