History
In 1620, the town's boot and shoemakers obtained a licence from Prince Bethlen Gábor of Transylvania to form a guild. In 1873, the guilds were centrally abolished and replaced by industrial associations. In 1876, the town centre was largely destroyed by fire, and the main square took on its present appearance. In 1890 the headquarters of the Bootmakers' Industrial Association was built based on the plans of Nagy Győző. The upstairs was used as offices, while the rest of the building was used as a hotel with a restaurant on the ground floor. A plaque commemorating the Millennium of Hungary, unveiled by the Bootmakers' Association in 1896, is on the wall of the gateway. In 1949, the restaurant was converted into a cinema.
