Rhédey Palace, Historic palace at Union Square in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

The two-story Rhédey Palace occupies a prominent corner position at the intersection of Union Square and Napoca Street in Cluj-Napoca.

The palace emerged from four separate patrician houses dating back to 1500, until Rhédey János consolidated them and added a second floor in the mid-nineteenth century.

The first Hungarian theater institution in Cluj established its presence in the palace in 1792, marked by a commemorative plaque installed in the ballroom.

The building features protective chains along its perimeter, originally installed to prevent damage from hay carts that frequently passed through the adjacent street.

The frontispiece displays the Rhédey Janos coat of arms with initials RJ and a crown adorned with nine vegetal branches representing nobility status.
