Mozsgó is home to Biedermann Castle, which was constructed circa 1896. The manor passed through many owners to settle their debts and even withstood a fire in 1917, before it was partially restored.[1] Following private ownership, it operated as a municipal cultural institution, then dormitory, and from 1950 onwards, it operated as a tractor driver training. It has been operating as a social home since 1960. [1]
