History

The house was built by Rucska János, a lawyer from Kolozsvár according to the plans of Maetz Frigyes. The building was erected in 1883 on the site of two smaller buildings in eclectic style. On the ground floor was the Europe Café, popularly known as the Kikakker Café after its owner. Today it is owned by the Reformed Church and since 1997 it has been the seat of the Consulate General of Hungary in Kolozsvár.
