History

It was built between 1718 and 1719 in Baroque style as the seat of the Hungarian town of Komárom. It was destroyed in the earthquake 1763. The reconstruction was finished by 1766. The building got its tower in 1767. Since then the building was destroyed and rebuilt several times. It gained its final form in 1875, when it was reconstructed in Renaissance style. Music play: Through the little doors of the tower Hussar figures come out and the Klapka March is played at 10, 12, 14 and 16 o'clock every day. The Hussar is a special class of Hungarian light cavalry. The first French Hussar regiment was raised from Hungarian rebels by the Hungarian Bercsényi László.
