Summary/Abstract: Throughout the 17th century the reformed parish of Cluj/Kolozsvár benefi ted of a given material support provided by the princes. One part of this material aid consisting of one quarter of the tithe paid by the inhabitants of Cluj had been enjoyed by the parish from the year 1610 onwards presumably until the decline of the Principality. The above mentioned income constituted the source for the wages of the parish clerks, for the boarding of the students and for the maintenance of the parish edifi ces. However, due to the fact that the expenses of the parish exceeded by far this sum, there was great demand for additional income in order to cover all expenses.
