History

It was built in 1911 in Art Nouveau style for the Albina Bank, designed by Magyar Vilmos. It was used as a bank until 1940. From 1968 to 2013, the building was used as the town hall. In 2020 it was bought by the Hungarian state owned company called Manevi Zrt., which also bought the former Hotel Pannónia in Szatmárnémeti.
