Ukrainian Orthodox Vicariate Sighetu Marmației

Following their conversion to Orthodoxy, they were organised into a vicariate headquartered at Sighetu Marmației, including parishes in Maramureș, Transylvania, Crișana, and the Banat.

In 1952, the vicariate became a Ukrainian archpriest's district, headquartered at Poienile de sub Munte and governed by the Diocese of Cluj.

The district continued to function in this manner until 1990, receiving annual financial contributions from the Romanian Patriarchate.

[1] After the 1989 fall of the Communist regime, the vicariate was re-established, again directed from Sighetu Marmaţiei and with two archpriest's districts, there and at Lugoj.

As of 2008, there were 33 parishes operating in 33 church buildings, 27 priests, one nunnery at Rona de Sus, and approximately 53,300 members.
