Áron Márton (28 August 1896 – 29 September 1980) was a Hungarian Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Bishop of Alba Iulia from his appointment in late 1938 until his resignation in 1980.
Márton held the title of Archbishop after he was raised to the honor despite leading a simple bishopric.
He served as a prelate during a tumultuous period that included World War II and the emergence of a communist regime in Romania.
He was even meant to become a cardinal but refused the honor when he learnt that another Romanian prelate would not be elevated into the cardinalate with him.The organization Yad Vashem honored him on 27 December 1999 as a "Righteous Among the Nations" for his efforts to stop the deportation of Romanian and Hungarian Jews during the course of World War II.Márton's cause for canonization opened on 17 November 1992 under Pope John Paul II and he is titled as a Servant of God.
