Tóth-palota - Tóth Palace - Szeged
The Tóth Palace stands as a neo-Rococo residential structure along Tisza Lajos körút in Szeged. Designed by Pál Kótay, this building enjoys local protection. The palace was commissioned by siblings Ferenc and Pál Tóth, entrepreneurs, and situated at the junction of Tisza Lajos boulevard and Kálvin tér, offering a splendid view of the elegant boulevard's downtown stretch. Architect Pál Kótay, recognized in Szeged, was tasked with its design. The resulting neo-rococo townhouse featured apartments with four or five rooms, including a servant's quarters, each with dual entrances to the corridor. Kótay's concept accommodated the use of a room as an office or clinic. A corner tower gained a balcony adorned with intricate railing. The Tóth brothers claimed possession before the city's stipulated drying deadline, causing a dispute that delayed the issuance of housing permits until 1902. The palace housed professionals like lawyers, officials, and doctors, including royal forester Ferenc Kiss. Minor changes occurred later. In 1941, a wartime shelter was constructed in the basement, followed by the conversion of yard stables into apartments in 1957.
