The National Theatre of Miskolc is Hungary’s first permanent theater playing productions in Hungarian; it was built in the Late-Classical-Romanesque style in 1847-1857 next door to the first building of the Theater of Miskolc which had burned down in 1843. The Ottó Hermann Museum is an outstanding, beautifully renovated building of today’s Avas monument complex. The building has been a museum since 1899; its core was probably built in the 15th century. One of its permanent parts is the exhibition of Endre Szász ‘s legacy.
The Rákóczi House is a one-story Baroque building; together with the neighboring “Dark Gate” it is an emphatic and characteristic point of the tow’s main street, and until 1702 the only “highrise,” that is the only multi-story residential building in Miskolc. At the beginning of the 13th century the mansion served to accommodate Francis II Rákóczi on two occasions, hence its common moniker of today: Rákóczi House.
The Actors’ and Theatre History Museum provides essential information on the history of acting. The first permanent theater of Hungary was established in this city. On the side of the Avas Hill, known for its wine cellars, stands one of the most beautiful Gothic church halls, the Christian Reformed Church of Avas. The separate 16th century wooden bell tower plays a lovely melody every quarter of an hour. A panoramic view of the city can be seen from the Avas lookout tower. In good weather, not just the Zemplén Mountains but the Low Tatras are also visisble.
The Minorits church and monastery is a precious memento of 18th century Baroque architecture, and the LutheranAll Saints’ Church with a statue of Mary carved from wood standing in front of it.
