Romashka Tower, Soviet residential tower in Chisinau, Moldova

The circular tower rises 77 meters into the sky, featuring 22 floors with a distinctive design that resembles the petals of a camomile flower.

Construction of the concrete tower began in 1978 under architect O. Vronski and engineer A. Marian, reaching completion in 1984 during the late socialist period.

The name Romashka translates to camomile flower in Russian, while Romanian speakers refer to the structure as Stone Flower due to its shape.

The building contains residential units with two rooms per apartment, shared facilities on each floor, and technical areas distributed throughout the structure.

After 1990, residents modified the original structure by adding unauthorized balconies and terraces, transforming the intended uniformity of the socialist design.
