Notable on Fő utca is the two-story Baroque building of the Monastery, featuring the sunburst Jesuit coat of arms above its stone-framed entrance gate. On its facade, a memorial plaque commemorates Benedek Virág and Pál Ányos, who lived in the Pauline monastery at the end of the 18th century.
And what connection did Rigó Jancsi have to the Monastery? A priest taught him here, as he was allowed to leave Pákozd at the age of 12 only on the condition that he would continue his studies in Fehérvár. The fate of the building is just as adventurous as Jancsi's… It was built in the mid-18th century by Jesuit monks along with the adjoining church. Later, it passed to the Paulines, and after the dissolution of their order, it became the property of the Cistercians. Today, it serves as an exhibition space for the St. Stephen King Museum, which reopened its doors in 2022 following a full renovation.
