Assan House, Historic monument in Alexandru Lahovari Square, Bucharest, Romania.
The Assan House features five decorated halls, including a Hall of Mirrors, Edison Hall, Chess Room, Council Room, and Zodiac Room with stained glass windows.
Construction of the building occurred between 1906 and 1914 under architect Ion D. Berindey's direction for industrialist Bazil G. Assan.
The Romanian Academy transformed the building into the House of Scientists after taking control of the property in 1945.
The building's central location in Bucharest provides visitors with multiple transportation options and easy access to other historical sites in the area.
The monumental double circular staircase at the secondary entrance displays intricate wrought iron railings and French neoclassical design elements.
