History

Prince Bethlen Gábor of Transylvania was elected King of Hungary in 1620 in this building during his war against the Habsburg emperor.

The burgher's house built at the end of the 14th century was significantly modified in 1610. It was reconstructed and expanded in Baroque style in the second half of the 18th century.
