History

The house was built in 1898 by the merchant Papp Zsigmond in an ornate neoclassical style. In 1918 it became the property of the Bányai family, and is therefore also known as the Bányai Palace. In the 1930s it was the seat of the National Hungarian Party (the political party of the Hungarian minority in Románia). Between 1948 and 1954 it housed a trade school, now it hosts a hotel (Concordia), offices and shops.
