History
The military school was built in 1898 in eclectic style based on the plans of Alpár Ignác.
In 1872, the Archaeological and Historical Society of Bihar County was founded with the aim of creating a museum in Bihar. Thanks to the support of the town municipality and others, the first museum of Nagyvárad was opened on 27 July 1896.
The original building was built in 1895 in eclectic, neo-Renaissance style designed by Rimanóczy Kálmán Sr. It was enlarged in 1910 based on the plans of Rimanóczy Kálmán Jr.
By 1918, the museum had a collection of 17,640 items, of which 1,377 came from the collection of the Roman Catholic Bishop Ipolyi Arnold.
In 1971 the museum moved to the Bishop's Palace building. After the palace was reclaimed by the Catholic Church, the museum moved to the former military training school.
