Katova bašta a Rodošto
Katova Bašta is the only remaining part of the city walls. Rodošto is the name of a replica of the house where Francis II Rákóczy (1720–1735) lived in exile at the Ottoman city of Rodosto. He was the leader of a failed revolt against the Habsburg. The building was built in 1943 during the WWII annexation of the city by Hungary. In the courtyard there is a statue of Francis II Rákóczy. The area is part of the East Slovak Museum.
