The original building of the villa was a one-storey house built in 1905 on behalf of Ferenc Vermes, landowner and supervising judge. It was modernised, enlarged and embellished by towers by its then-owner in 1909 – and the villa received its present form.
During World War II, it housed the German and later the Russian commandership. In the sixties and seventies of the 20th century the villa was used for leisure-time activities for children and youth. In 1988-2002 it hosted the branch office of the Slovak National Gallery. In 2005, the building was purchased by Dunaszerdahely (Dunajská Streda) Municipality and after rebuilding the Modern Hungarian Gallery moved in.
