A few words about the history of the market itself

From the second half of the 19th century, the development of the city of Budapest began at a rapid pace. At that time in Budapest there were 44 open markets providing food for the population, but in these markets it was almost impossible to ensure public cleanliness. Water supply at the sites caused further problems, and the health of the citizens was in risk. In the 1870s, the idea of ​​a unified system of market hall was born, which was decided by the city council in 1891 after a long preparation. On August 25, 1892, the jurisdiction committee of the capital published a notice on the design competition, which received nine applications by the end of the year. Four applications were made by engineers from Budapest, the remaining applications were from Sofia, Prague, Leipzig, Berlin and Paris. The jury, chaired by Mayor Karoli Kamermeyer (mayor of the city at that time), was awarded three prizes, including $ 2,000 given to the Hungarian architect Sam Pech for the first prize.

Then the jury made a separate decision about which plan to implement. Committee members voted unanimously for Sam Pech. In January 1893, a Hungarian architect formally received a contract for the development of detailed plans. In the main plans of the architect, he placed a restaurant at the main entrance and administrative premises on the south side, as well as a high-pressure water tower for hydraulic elevators used for transportation of goods. Construction began in 1894 and was planned for the celebration of the millennium. However, there was some complication around the discovery. Ten days before the planned opening, a fire broke out in the hall, and almost the entire roof structure burned down. The opening was postponed for a year, and only opened on February 15, 1897, in the presence of the Prime Minister of Hungary. In May of that year, King Joseph I of France visited the new building, which was then considered the pride of the city.
