History

In 1873, the guilds were abolished centrally and replaced by industrial associations. In 1876, the town centre was largely destroyed by fire, and the main square took on its present appearance. In 1888 the headquarters of the Butchers' Industrial Association was built based on the plans of Nagy Győző.

The southern one-storey wing was the "Grand Butchery", where fresh meat was sold. In the main building there were offices and community rooms (club room, billiard room and chess room). After 1945 it was nationalised and turned into a cinema.
