Opened in 1997 the Community Center and Library became the center of the cultural life in the past few years. The Community Center also accommodates a library and since 2002 a new computer room too. Since 2010 Alsózsolca’s Cultural Collection and its Sports Hall also became part of the institution.

Well equipped and imposing the Community Center is situated in the center of Alsózsolca under the address 1. Görgey Street.
