10 Architectural Buildings in Oradea That You Shouldn't Miss
The Baroque Palace of Oradea is simply epic. Now a museum, the 18th-century building is home to an outdoor bronze and marble statue park, Transylvanian folk art and a collection of animal remains that includes dinosaur fossils. You could spend days here, but try to make some time for other Oradea attractions, such as the beautiful Art Nouveau buildings of Str. Republicii, the astronomical clock of the Biserica cu Lună, and the Băile Felix thermal spa.

This is one of the iconic palaces of Oradea. The building is a replica of the Ca d’Oro palace in Venice. Eclectic style with Romanic influences. It was restored this year and I had a fresh new look. More and more palaces from Oradea are being restored lately.

If you are passionate about architecture, you can spend hours admiring the meticulousness with which this palace was created. It is almost impossible to decide which building is more beautiful - Rimanoczy Kalman Sr. Palace or the neighboring building - Miskovits Miksa Palace. Unfortunately, the building is privately owned and I did not have access to the inner courtyard. Congratulations to the local authorities for the effort to renovate such buildings.

The entire area of Trajan Park is worth a visit. The park itself is beautiful and the buildings around it have a special charm. The Palace of Justice is imposing in the landscape through the imposing main facade, the one from Traian Park. The columns with ionic capitel, the rich animal and vegetable ornamentation in stucco from the windows and the statuary group from the level of the cornice are harmoniously combined, so the building will enchant you with its architecture.

Near the Roman Catholic Cathedral and Bishop's Palace you can find this interesting architectural work. It was started to build in 1773 in Baroque style and it was finished in 1875. The corridor has got 56 pillars/columns, it's 253ms long and it links 10 buildings. It used to be homes of canons. The 3 famous buildings are in the Baroque quarter of Oradea. It's a must-see sight, don't miss it!

The building is not following the usual architectural style of the town, being neo-Romanian style (thus names in specialist literature, it is a late variant of the Brancovenesc style).

The building of the Greek-Catholic Theological High School "Iuliu Maniu" is located in the city center, in the vicinity of the Greek-Catholic Cathedral "Saint Nicholas", on Iuliu Maniu Street no. 5. It was built in 1925, in neo-Romanian style and attracts your attention through the hundreds of flowers you see at the windows. I am an admirer of Art-Nouveau buildings (and Oradea has many) but the building of this high school is also charming. The facades were designed in neo-Romanian style, being symmetrical, with alternations of smooth and flat surfaces, provided with balconies. The windows are rectangular and the rear windows are in an arc. The first floor is separated from the ground floor by a belt, and the second floor from the first by an eaves. The windows on the second floor are decorated at the top with ornate rear windows. All the admiration for the administration of this high school!
