The Corbu House


Address

Bulevardul Mihai Eminescu 20, Piatra Neamț, Romania

About

 The house was built in 1898 by Dimitrie Corbu (former mayor of Piatra-Neamț in 1899, 1905, 1907 and 1913). The columns, capitals, ornamentation, tall rooms, the shape of the building itself and the shape of the roof betray an architect conquered by the Baroque style.
 
Luminița Moscalu, the director of the "Victor Brauner" High School in Piatra-Neamț, described the beautiful building as follows: "L-shaped ground floor building". The main entrance has a large portico, two Ionic columns, capitals with volutes, two massive pillars with two engaged columns, connected by arches in full girdle. The ornamentation of the stucco cartouches is done in roroco style. It specifies eclectic architecture with a dominant baroque".
