PIAȚA UNIRII

This wide square on the left bank is surrounded by remarkable buildings, including the Black Eagle Palace(Vulturul Negru), a vast 1908 Secession complex with an asymmetrical façade. It is crossed by a covered passage decorated with floral friezes and a stained-glass eagle window. Also note the Moskovits Adolf Palace (1905), with its geometric motifs, on the corner of Rue Alecsandri. The town hall is neoclassical (1903). The superb Greek-Catholic Episcopal Palace, in Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo style (1905), suffered a serious fire in 2018.
