Marosvásárhely (Târgu Mureș) is one of the cultural and educational centres of the Hungarian community living in Transylvania, Romania. Now, the astonishing Culture Palace of the city has been beautifully renewed. Check out the details and some photos in our article below.
According to turizmus.com, the iconic Culture Palace of Marosvásárhely was inaugurated this Thursday. The restoration and renovation work lasted four years, and thanks to that, one of the most scenic Transylvanian monuments can shine in its original glory.
The Art Nouveau-style palace in the city’s main square is iconic in Marosvásárhely. Ferenc Péter, the President of the Assembly of Maros County, said that the project required extreme caution not to harm the building in any way.
Building the palace was the dream of Marosvásárhely’s Mayor György Bernádi, who led the city between 1902–1912 and 1926–1929. Mr Péter said their task was to preserve it and renew it, meeting the requirements of this age. Interestingly, the work was financed by the county assembly and the European Union. The EU support was EUR 1.2 million from the project’s EUR 2.2 million cost.
The palace is an outstanding masterpiece of the Central European Art Nouveau
He said they should fill the palace with heartwarming performances. He also expressed hope that the building would be in its place even one hundred years later.
