Description

The Kretzulescu Palace is a magnificent architectural monument in the heart of Bucharest. Built between 1902 and 1906 for Elena Kretzulescu, it combines an eclectic style with elements of the French Renaissance, which was fashionable in Bucharest at the time.

The impressive facade, richly decorated reception halls, marble staircases and ornate chandeliers delight any architecture lover. The palace has served various functions, from the seat of the prime minister to the Museum of Religious Art, and since 1972 it has housed the UNESCO European Center for Higher Education.

The back of the building offers a picturesque view of Cișmigiu Park, which adds to the place's charm.

avatarNikita Nymeros6 months agoVery beautiful building at the entrance of the park. Sadly couldn’t visit inside since I went on New Year. From the outside though it really adds style and beauty to the surrounding.
avatarGrace11 months agoBeautiful building, a shame it can’t be visited. Luckily there’s the park directly next to it which you can explore once you’ve finished admiring the architecture of this ‘palace’
avatarS. Gadennea year agoIncredibly beautiful mansion that could have 5 stars if it were correctly maintained by its owner (UNESCO). Cannot be visited.
