The planning and building of Gozsdu Courtyard began in 1900 by the order of the Gozsdu Foundation, established from the wealth of Gozsdu Manó, and was erected in 1915 based on the designs of Czigler Győző.

In those days the courtyards of the centre were full of vivacious commercial life; it was an important part of the bustling life of the downtown both at the beginning of the past century such as today as well.
