History
The bust of Kossuth Lajos was erected in 1907 from public contributions. It was the artwork of the sculptor Horvay Ede.
Kossuth Lajos was the political leader of the Hungarian War of Independence between 1848 and 1849. The Czechoslovak invaders tore the statue down on June 13, 1919 by night. It was reerected in Rudabánya (still Hungary) in 1972.
