History

The building was built in the 17th century for the Animal Husbandry Office of Máramaros County. The Upper Girls' School of Máramarossziget was opened in 1861 thanks to Leöwey Klára. The school was closed by the higher authorities in the same year and reopened in 1870. The building was converted for the school.

In 1901, on the occasion of the celebrations of the millennium of Hungary, the exterior was decorated in Art Nouveau style with colourful ceramics. Today the building houses the Ukrainian Lyceum (Liceul Ucrainean Taras Sevcenco).
