# Old Hungarian Grammar School

Also called: Stara mađarska gimnazija, Régi katolikus főgimnázium, Altes ungarisches Gymnasium.

The house at Kossuth Lajos utca 43, on the corner of Örmény utca, Armenian Street, was the earlier home of the Royal Hungarian Catholic grammar school, near the Armenian church. After the Hungarian school law of 1868 the town's Catholics campaigned for a gymnasium; the crown granted it in January 1873, and it opened on 4 October 1873 with four classes. The town magistrate put up its school building in 1876 from the municipal education fund, and by 1877 it had eight classes, 13 teachers and 181 pupils. A new building for it was begun at Futoška 17 in 1912, and advertisements from 1914 call the corner house the old grammar school. It also housed a court, and when it was pulled down, as the boulevard was driven through the old town under the plan of 1950, it held the Vojvodina Museum. The Bazar department store, designed in 1972 by Milan Mihelič, stands on its site. This archive's postcards show its long front, with the Armenian church tower beyond.
