The current building was constructed in 1780, based on the plans of the surveyor Vertics József. Using this building, in 1839, the city’s renowned engineer, Giba Antal, transformed the 18th-century structure by reinforcing the foundation walls and adding an extension to the north, in line with the symmetrical structure. The main facade is 76 meters long, and in the central part, there is a portico supported by six massive pillars. In 1929, Tarnay Ivor, the vice-constable, expanded the building with a three-story wing. Until 1950, the building served as the headquarters of the Csanád County, and afterward, it was used by the city council, and since 1990, by the local administration. In the building’s side garden, there is a statue of Kornélia Hollósy. In 1999, a commemorative plaque was placed on the city hall’s wall to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the city’s re-establishment. On May 7, 2000, on Town Day, the city’s coat of arms, made of colored terracotta, was placed on the building’s pediment. The former county headquarters, now the city hall, is protected as a historic monument. It is considered one of the most beautiful classicist-style buildings in the country. It is also one of the most valuable architectural landmarks of the city of Makó.
