    The "Casa Matei Corvin" is the birthplace of the future Hungarian king. It is the oldest secular building in the city, built in the 15th century in the Gothic style as a small guesthouse. Matthias Corvinus ("the Raven") was born here on February 23, 1443. He ascended the Hungarian throne in 1458 at the age of fourteen. In gratitude for the hospitality that the house owner Jakab Méhffi had once shown his heavily pregnant mother, King Matthias decreed in 1467 that Méhffi and all his descendants were exempt from all taxes and duties. Over the course of its history, the house served as a prison, hospital and museum. Today it houses an institute for fine arts at the local art and design college.
