History
The house was built in 1815. In the arched recess protected by a locked metal railing on one corner of the house, the Ironed Stump, the symbol of the Arad guilds, was placed. The guild stump was made by a sculptor from Temesvár, Moritz Heim, on the commission of the Macedo-Romanian merchant Andrei Trandafir. In fact, it is a piece of tree trunk covered with a metal plate. Freed apprentices from the guild centres of Europe came to Arad to specialise, and as a sign that they had been here, they hammered different shaped rivets into the stump. The original stump is on display on the second floor of the Museum of Fine Arts.
