The park-keeper house in the suburbs of Szabadszállás once belonged to the grandfather of József Attile, Pőcze Imre. His daughter Pőcze Borbála, the mother of József Attila, was born and lived in Szabadszállás. The poet along his siblings traveled to Szabadszállás when a child and spent beautiful days there.

The Pőcze family moved from Szabadszállás at the time of the Turkish reign when they were forced to move due to the unbearable fights. The family found refuge in the Transdanubian area and only moved back to Kiskunság in the 18th century.

The poet was influenced by the beautiful days in Szabadszállás which he worded in many of his poems. The outsider and silent grandfather is remembered in the poem titled 'Grunty'.

He lived on rancid bacon, just as time.
He gained and lost every day, bent fair;
counted hey or watched the sky,
his heart rustled in the stars.

He knew that the sun arises from behind the hills.
He smoked his pipe long and spat deliberate.
When roles of wood hit him, he walked slowly
he sat at the humming water silently.

Just like that. And now this gathering dawn
a bush of girls stamp out
and he grumps and moans. Well, he is a little angry
and he mumbled in his handy moustache, muttered.

(Except: József Attila: 'Grunty', August 1929)

Now a memorial house is open in the park-keeper house of Pőcze Imre. The town of Szabadszállás commemorated the 100th anniversary of the birth of the poet with a program series in April 2005. The renovated 'Grunty House' was inaugurated, as well the bust of József Attile where his relatives also participated.

The little house of the park-keeper includes furniture and equipment. Entering the house, the people may be surprised to experience the simple and life and poverty of those who once lived in the house
