History

Aurel Lazar was a member of the Romanian National Party and took part in the Romanian separatist movement for the annexation of eastern Hungary to Romania in 1918. His statue was erected in 2008. He was instrumental in making the once predominantly Hungarian Nagyvárad, founded by Hungarians, a Romanian majority city during the 20th century.
