The Theater was built from 1899 after the plans of the Vienesse firm Fellner and Helmer what planed almost 50 theaters in Europe like those of Timisoara, Cluj and Iasi. The entrepreneurs Kalman Rimanoczy Jr, Jozsef Guttman and Vilmos Rendes realized the building in less than two years and the curtains lifted up at October 15th 1900.

The Greek-Catholic Bishop Palace was built in 1903 under the plans of architect Rimanoczy Kalman Jr in renaissance style with Baroque and Rococo elements. In 1948 the Bishop Palace had been seized and transformed in a folksy school. After that there was installed the County Library (Biblioteca Judeteana). After 1989, the Greek-catholic church got back the bishop palace.
