Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the project (Synods and Assemblies of the Catholic Church in Hungary – 1790–2010) was to conduct basic research for the objective exploration of the History of the Hungarian Catholic Church between 1790 and 2010. By doing basic research at Hungarian and foreign archives, the research group explored the documents of Catholic synods held in historic Hungary. The number of writings published with OTKA reference is 102 (with 10 German, 1 Russian, and 1 Italian among them). The analysis of its institutional history is done through synodal acts and decrees of the Church beginning with1782, when Ioan Bob, who at the institutional level prepared the Church for the modern age, was elected Bishop, down to 1900 and the decisions taken by the provincial synod in that year.
