About Miklós Sirokay

Miklós Sirokay was a Hungarian politician.

Miklós Sirokay de Siroka (? – 1355 or 1358), known as Nikolae Sirocai in Romania, was a voivode of Transylvania under the King of Hungary.

In 1342, after his promotion to the King's Chamberlain, he was made Voivode of Transylvania. In 1344 Louis I the Great stripped him of this title, though Sirokay remained in his favour. He later reappeared as a member of the King's court of justice. In 1348, he is mentioned as Baron.
