Known in the past as the Casa Republicii, then Casa Poporului, but not for the people, it is the main symbol of the Communist Era, meant to house the ministries, the Communist party offices or temporary apartments of high functionaries. Construction began in 1984 in what was considered the safest place in the city due to the high earthquake risk. The building has 9 storeys and 4 underground levels.
Along the tour you will pass by the most important rooms in the building, conference halls, balcony with the great view of the main square (unfortunately not available for the moment), main staircases, large hallways, impressive galleries or the Plenary Room of the Senate (available only on tours running on this side of the building at the weekends). You will be surprised by the lavishly decorated interiors, all made from local materials (marble, crystal, carpets, curtains, stucco) and by the local craftsmen.
