The present church of the monastery was built around 1370, according to a triconch plan (Having apses with semi-domes on three sides of a square chamber), at a time when this architecture was spreading to Moldavia and Wallachia, the other Romanian provinces.
•
The monastery was rebuilt at the beginning of the 18th century, thanks to bishop Sava I Brancovici, who resided in Lipova and later in Ineu (towns in what is now Arad County, Romania).
•
It was initially founded on the northern bank of the lower Mureş River (in western Romania, between the current city of Arad and the Hungarian border).

The Hodoş-Bodrog Monastery is one of the oldest monastic institutions belonging to the Romanian Orthodox Church.
