History
The houses are named after the Transylvanian Roman Catholic State, the builder of the houses. The history of the buildings is linked to the development of the Holy Church (Szentegyház) Street (now Iuliu Maniu), which until the 17th century reached only as far as Bolyai Street, and was extended to the Main Square only in 1899.
Groisz Gusztáv proposed to build new apartment buildings at the same time as the street was extended. Four Renaissance house had to be demolished to carry out the plan. In April 1898, the firm Hauszmann and Co began demolition and then construction. The new tenement houses were designed by Alpár Ignác in neo-baroque style. On the roofs of both corner houses, three bell motifs decorated with crosses - referring to the Holy Trinity - marked the buildings' affiliation.
