Chișinău City Hall
Chișinău City Hall, Historical government building in central Chișinău, Moldova.
Chișinău City Hall is a government building with eclectic architecture that blends French and German influences through ornate details on its symmetrical facade. It stands on Stefan the Great Avenue as the center of municipal administration.
The building was constructed in 1902 to house the city Duma under the initiative of Mayor Karol Schmidt. It replaced a former fire station that had occupied the same location.
The City Hall serves as a gathering place for municipal celebrations and official events, reflecting how local governance has evolved across different periods. Citizens and visitors recognize it as the administrative heart of Chișinău.
The building is accessible during weekday working hours, with guided tours available through the local Tourist Information Centre. Plan a visit in advance to arrange a tour and learn about its architectural and historical significance.
The building has maintained its original administrative purpose for over 120 years, continuing to serve as the seat of local government. This continuity makes it a living part of the city rather than a merely historical monument.
