Ady Endre Memorial House.

Three kilometres from Căuaș there is a small village with the name of the poet Ady Endre, one of the most important Hungarian poets. In 1957, Ady Endre Memorial House was founded and in the same year the name of the small village Micențiu was changed to Ady Endre. Among the important documents, books and manuscripts, there is also the parish transcript of the Protestant Church with the registered birth date of the poet in it. In the opposite part of the courtyard there is the Ady Endre family peasant house, where the original furniture items are displayed.
