    The building is currently being renovated (4/2024) and is covered. However, the cover reflects the final form and is worth seeing in itself.

        The Cifra Palace (Hungarian: Cifrapalota) in the Hungarian city of Kecskemét is a townhouse and an important example of Hungarian Art Nouveau.

        The building was designed by Géza Márkus and was completed in 1902. The facade of the house is completely decorated with majolica tiles from the Zsolnay Porcelain Manufactory, whose motifs are borrowed from Hungarian folk art. The most striking stylistic element of the tiles, which were made using the sgraffito technique, are floral motifs. The ceramics are framed in round floral or mushroom-shaped elements. The roof of the palace is covered with green and light brown roof tiles.

        Today the building houses the József Katona Museum.
