The building was made at the turn of the 19th and 20 century, but data on its occurrence are not currently fully understood. Some of the researchers are inclined to believe that it was built in the years 1896-1899 as the Upper Museum, prepared in 1903 for representational Building Society Big Casino. [Project Institute of Culture in Bratislava, Prešov Centre: London. Direction. SD Studio. Project task, 1982 drafted Matusek, p. 9; SSR Ministry of Culture, Bratislava: the reconstruction of monuments. Reconstruct the study Košice - Direction, 1980, processed Peter Janik, p. 4] According to the researchers, however, later left the building society to build a large casino again.
