The Bolyai Farkas Theoretical Lyceum is a Hungarian-language secondary school. Founded in 1557, it was initially located in the Franciscan monastery next to the castle church. After being devastated by the armies of General Basta in 1601/1602, the institution moved to the site where the lyceum still stands today. Farkas Bolyai gave his inauguration speech here in May 1804, marking the beginning of the institute's heyday. He advocated for the modernization of education. The son of the famous mathematician, János Bolyai, also studied here. In 1957, on the 400th anniversary of its existence, the institution adopted the name Bolyai Farkas.
