In Lipscani, the Cultural Centre of the Bucharest Municipality is a building you need to see if you have an eye for Art Deco architecture.
Completed in 1934, this is typical of the Art Deco wonders that went up in the city during the interwar period, and was intended as a recreational venue for the Bucharest City Hall Civil Servants’ Union.
Since 1996 the building has been a cultural centre, putting on more than 200 events a year by artists not supported by traditional cultural institutions.
