The plans were drawn up in 1903 by the Viennese firm Fellner & Helmer, which designed 48 theatres in Central Europe between 1873 and 1919. The construction began in 1904 and the theatre was inaugurated on 8 September 1906.@\nIn 1919, the occupying Romanians expropriated the theatre and the Hungarian theatre company was forced to move to the Ny\u00e1ri Sz\u00ednk\u00f6r (Summer Theatre) on the S\u00e9tat\u00e9r. Between 1940 and 1945, as a result of the Second Vienna Award, the Hungarian company once again owned the theatre. In 1945, the theatre was again expropriated by the Romanian authorities, who returned with the Soviet occupying army. The two side niches on the main facade originally housed statues of Wessel\u00e9nyi Mikl\u00f3s and J\u00f3sika Mikl\u00f3s, but these were removed by the Romanians in 1919. Today they are replaced by statues of Apollo and Thalia.@ \nThe first permanent company in Kolozsv\u00e1r was Hungarian, founded in 1792 and directed by Kotsi Patk\u00f3 J\u00e1nos.
