History
The Royal Hungarian High School of Siences was founded in the autumn of 1871 by order of Eötvös József, then Minister of Religion and Education of Hungary. Work began in the 1880s, and several bastions and internal buildings were converted or demolished in the castle. It was then that the Székelytámadt Castle took on its present appearance. Construction began in the spring of 1889, based on the plans of the Budapest architect Meixner Károly. The gymnasium was built, and between 1890 and 1891 the 56-room school was constructed. After the Romanian occupation in 1919, it was converted into a Romanian-language school. In 1998, it was named after Eötvös József and a statue was erected in the park in front of the school in his memory.
