Funeral home, Funeral home at Central Cemetery in Debrecen, Hungary.

The funeral home and crematorium of Debrecen's public cemetery is a listed complex designed by city chief architect József Borsos in a Hungarian folk style. Its walls are clad in coloured and enamelled decorative bricks, and it features frescoes, glass mosaics and sculptures by Jenő Haranghy, László Holló and János Kovács Jr. The crematorium section was the first such facility in Hungary.

Architect József Borsos designed this building, which opened in 1932 as part of the city's first public cemetery. The facility was built during a time when Debrecen was modernizing its municipal infrastructure.

The complex was built in a Hungarian folk style, with coloured facing bricks and enamelled decorative tiles on its walls. Frescoes, glass mosaics and sculptures were made after designs by Jenő Haranghy, László Holló and János Kovács Jr. The architect Borsos is buried in front of the crematorium he designed.

The complex stands in the new public cemetery marked out in 1928; the architect Borsos is buried in front of the crematorium, so look for his grave before entering. The crematorium itself still operates, now with computer-controlled gas furnaces replacing the original coke-fired ones.

The architect József Borsos lived to see the crematorium finally switched on in 1951, a year before his death at 77. He was not cremated himself: his grave lies in front of the building he designed.
