Catedrala Ortodoxă "Sfânta Treime"
Built in 1992-2006, the interior was re-plastered & repainted in 2018, with wooden scaffolding filling the northern part near the iconostasis. The murals at the southern part, by the entrance, look very fresh.
Biserica Franciscană
Cannot be visited regularly, as it is in the citadel and therefore part of the restricted military area.
An 18th-century Vauban-style fortification on the site of an earlier Ottoman fort. But it is a military base and closed to the public; you can't even see much of the exterior among the tangled shrubs.
Biserica Roșie, "Red church"
Built in 1906 from red bricks (hence the nickname), Gothic Revival style.
Palatul Administrativ
Impressive city hall, built in 1876 in Renaissance Revival style.
Palatul Cultural & Complexul Muzeal
Imposing cultural complex, dating from 1911-13, in an eclectic style mix of neoclassical, Gothic and Renaissance elements. The museum has three divisions: fine arts, natural sciences, and archaeology/history. The philharmonic orchestra (filarmonia) has regular concerts: the box office is in the Ioan Slavici Theatre.
