History
It was built in 1566 in Renaissance style where Serédy Gáspár died on March 3, 1566. Serédy Gáspár was a powerful landlord, owner of several nearby castles. According to the legend Serédy sold his beloved castle of Zboró to Rákóczi for 1.000 gold. As he was heading towards Bártfa on the country road, he turned back once again, and his heart broke in sorrow and he died on the spot. His wife, Mérey Anna, built the memorial soon after his death.
