History

It has the town's largest 22-acre park with playground, walking paths, a narrow-gauge railway, an artificial lake, an island, etc. It is the venue of the annual Partium Hungarian Days. Once there was also a zoo in the park, and the building of the famous "Kiosk" stood in the park. It is called Kossuth Garden by the locals after Kossuth Lajos, the leader of the Hungarian Revolution and War of Independence between 1848 and 1849.

In 1898, on the initiative of Gedeon Kiss, the town's chief administrator, the Kossuth Garden was designed by Johann Hein, an architect from Hamburg.
