Augusz House Description
The residence of Baron Antal Augusz, built in 1820, is a very colorful sight: the white central part is Classical, the pink-colored right wing resembles the Castello Miramare in Trieste, the gray left wing is German Baroque. Franz Liszt was often a guest here giving concerts. At the baron's request Liszt composed a mass for the consecration of the church in the new town; however, this "Szekszárd Mass" was not performed until later. Nowadays the building is used as a music school, tourist office and a Liszt museum. In the garden behind the house is a bust of Liszt by Borsos.

The Hotel Garay opposite Augusz House is the former Grand Hotel, built around the turn of the century.
