History

King Louis I of Hungary died on September 11, 1382 in the Popovich House in Nagyszombat. The Czechoslovaks demolished the building in 1947 and built a post office on its site.

The neighboring Somonyi House was marked with a plaque in 1879 because it was considered to have been the place where the great king died. A plaque was placed also on the Popovich House in 1882.
