The St. Anne's Chapel in Komárno stands at the southern end of Jókai Street, next to the Town Hall. Right next to it stands House No. 6, founded by Borbála Miletics, a burgess of Komárom, by her will dated 1709. The rich widow bequeathed two shops and her house to the poor. The construction of the chapel was not completed until 1750, but shortly thereafter it was damaged by an earthquake (1763) and burned down on May 10, 1768. The poorhouse was also supported by a significant amount of money in 1802 by Canon Ignác Bärnkopf of Esztergom. The hospital took in 12 poor people who could beg twice a year in the city.
