Pécs - Oldest House in Pécs

The oldest house in the town is first mentioned in the town records as having been the provost's house in 1324. It is likely that the vaulted entrance and the first-floor window, both with Gothic niche-seats, date from that time. The restored Renaissance windows on the first floor are evidence of renovations carried out in the early 16th C; the west extension, originally an open loggia, was added in the 18th C. The Baroque immaculata above the entrance is also from that period. The Zsolnay Collection and a selection of works by the sculptor Amerigo Tot are tastefully displayed in its beautiful rooms.

The oldest house houses the Arts and Crafts collection together with examples of the work of the Hungarian sculptor
