Monuments
The Fire Tower of Bucharest
Built in 1890 by the order of King Carol I, the Fire Tower represented a strategic element in the development of Bucharest's infrastructure at that time - a city predominantly filled with wooden buildings constructed in a haphazard manner.
The church of Bucur, the shepherd
There is probably no other monument in Bucharest that has more significance for the origin of the city. Fortunately, the church of Bucur the Shepherd not only still exists, but can still be visited today, and that is a great privilege.
Maria Rosetti Street & Caragiale’s statue and absurdity
The story of the first statue of I.L. Caragiale - the genius of Romanian drama, proves how absurd society can sometimes be and represents a landmark for the strong influence of the political regime on everyday life.
