Manu-Auschnitt House, Historic residence near Victoriei Square in Bucharest, Romania.
The Manu-Auschnitt House is a historic residence in Bucharest that features architectural elements inspired by Paris's Biron Palace, with detailed facade ornamentation and classical proportions. The exterior design displays carefully executed ornaments and balanced composition that frames the living spaces within.
The house was built in 1915 by architect Grigore Cerchez for magistrate Ioan Manu. Subsequently, industrialist Max Auschnitt purchased the property in 1932, after which it served various important roles throughout the 20th century.
The building displays early 20th-century Romanian architecture that blends French design principles with local construction methods. On its facade, you can observe how Western European aesthetics merged with regional craftsmanship and building traditions.
The building is located at Aleea Modrogan 2 in Sector 1 and is easily accessible on foot from Aviatorilor Boulevard. Its central location makes it straightforward to include in a day's itinerary.
The building once served as the residence of Prime Minister Petru Groza during communist times and now houses the Argentine Embassy. This shifting history reflects the importance this property has held for the city across different eras.
