History

The house was built by the Town Shelter Fund in 1908 to provide a source of income for its charitable purposes. It was designed by Székely László, the town's chief architect. It had a restaurant on the ground floor and apartments for rent on the upper floors. The side facing the Neo-Romanesque Millennium Church was designed in Neo-Romanesque style, the other side has an Art Nouveau facade.
