History

The house was built in 1868 based on the plans of the architect Rimanóczy Kálmán Sr. The institution was founded by Canon Nogáll János. Sisters of Mercy of St Vincent de Paul from the Order of Szatmár were settled here to operate a nursery and a kindergarten. From 1877 it became an elementary school for girls, later a girls' school and from 1882 a boys' school was also housed in the building. In 1895 a chapel was built, in 1899 a storey was added. In 1906 a boys' boarding school was built, in 1911 a girls' boarding school. The facade was redecorated in 1811 based on the designs of Rimanóczy Kálmán Jr.
