History

It was mistakenly believed to be the house of Claudius Florimund Mercy, the first governor of the Bánság of Temes. The 1758 plan of the town shows a group of houses in this part of the town, with a square in front bearing the name Mercy. By the time this house was built, the governor was no longer alive, having been killed in the battle of Parma in 1734.
