History
The palace was built in 1905, based on the plans of the architect Rimanóczy Kálmán Jr., commissioned by the Greek Catholic Bishop of Várad Demetrie Radu. The building caught fire on 25 August 2018. Most of the building burnt down. Demetrie Radu was the co-chairman of the Vlach mob that gathered in Gyulafehérvár in 1918. He was killed in a bomb attack on the Romanian Parliament on 8 December 1920.
