Next up, you will hear captivating stories about kings and the world wars in the shadow of King Carol’s statue. In contrast to these structures from the royal period stands the Revolution Square. Here you’ll find the former headquarters of the Communist Party, the spot where all important decisions where made between 1950-1989.

That's why, here you will discover the life story of the infamous dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu. But most importantly, you will get a glimpse into the communist oppression in Romania and the first revolution in the world to be broadcast live on TV.
