History
A square surrounded by houses inspired by the architecture of European countries and regions. It connects the three old town gates, the Saint Stephen Gate, the King Béla IV Gate and the Maria Theresia Gate.
The construction started in 1999 as a joint venture of the architect Litomericzky Nádor, the construction entrepreneur Takács Péter and the project manager Varga Péter. Most of the buildings were ready by the year 2002, but it was left unfinished because of the company went bankrupt.
The German house is located in the Courtyard of Europe. It was built in the 17th century. It functioned as a town theatre between 1800 and 1827. Behind the house a belfry was placed.
The Palatinus civil association created a statue park of 18 statues in the courtyard, which represent rulers and important historical persons.
The copy of the bandstand that once stood in the English Park can also be seen in the courtyard.
The Matthias gate opens from the inner courtyard of the Zichy Palace.
There is also a well that was once in front of the Town Hall on the Main Square.
