Municipal Library

It was built in 1864 by the merchant Vasile Ioachim and painted probably by Venetian craftsmen. The building offers three cardinal sides. The front side has a central pediment with a perfect proportionality, columns and high windows beautiful decorated with splendid models. The back side is cut in two planes of alignment: the exterior is provided with second recess with two female statues in Renaissance style, and the land at the entrance, more functional, has a porch with French door. The library’s tower is unique in Moldova.

Currently, the building houses the Municipal Library with a book fund donated by Professor George Radu Melidon.
