Victoria Department Store, Historic department store on Calea Victoriei, Bucharest, Romania.

The Victoria Department Store stands at number 17 Calea Victoriei, featuring an Art Deco architectural style with large display windows and spacious retail areas.

Completed in 1928, the building was designed by architect Oskar Maugsch and later renovated by Herman Clejan, becoming Romania's first major retail establishment.

The interior design drew inspiration from Parisian stores, introducing Romanian society to modern retail concepts through its grand shopping spaces and product displays.

The store maintains regular business hours and offers multiple floors of retail space, with public transportation stops located directly in front of the building.

The structure originated as part of the Socec & Co. Library and Graphic Arts Institute in 1880 before its complete transformation into a department store in 1931.
