Late-Classicist two-wing building of General /Old/ Hospital with Neo-Gothic Chapel in the middle are situated, together with a newer pavilion from 1937 in a large yard with a park. Gatehouse was constructed after the WWII. The hospital yard is fenced by a remarkable wrought railing. The hospital originated from a testament donation of Ms. Lujza Mihalovits, widow of Dr. Károly Kós, who wished to establish a hospital in Roznava under the administration of the Catholic Church. The period during which the hospital did not have its own building ended when bischop György Schopper donated funds that sufficed for building of a new hospital building. This was opened in 1887.
