Cantacuzino Palace in Iași, Neoclassical mansion in Iasi, Romania

The Cantacuzino Palace features stone walls, plastered bricks, and classical architectural elements across its spacious halls and corridors on Bulevardul Carol I.

Built in 1840 for Chancellor Dumitrache Cantacuzino Pascanu, the palace served as Queen Mary's residence during World War I from 1916 to 1918.

The palace transformed into the Children's Palace in 1966, offering educational programs and activities for young people in the Iasi region.

Located at Bulevardul Carol I number 2, the palace maintains regular opening hours for visitors interested in exploring its neoclassical architecture.

In 1855, a significant event at the palace involving a servant's actions contributed to accelerating the abolition of nobility-held slavery in Romania.
