A taste of the exhibition
The Leventeház, the Count Tisza István Hospital and the Post Palace were built during the reign of the lord lieutenant Fráter László. The 'Statue of Heroes' and the Tisza Kálmán statue were erected in the Main Sqaure in 1933. Shops opened in the center of the town. Beside the fashion shops of Zádor Márton and Marschalkó József, the iron shop of the father of the writer Konrád György, Konrád József were the most important shops. From among industrial plants, the Nyíri Steam Mill was the most significant.
