The building of the museum was built in 1823, the year of the birth of Petőfi. It was built by István Szűcs, which is perceivable on a sign in the hallway down to the cellar. The building functioned as a living quarter until 1960. In this very year the teacher Lajos Szabó tried everything to have the building renovated. This enterprise was successful and since that time this little building serves as our museum.
