History · Oradea
On local signs: Piața Unirii
This is where picture-postcard Oradea begins: City Hall with its tower, the Black Eagle Palace, the bishop’s palace and three historic churches, all around the same square.
The central square of the Orașul Nou (New Town) district took shape between 1714 and 1740 as the Small Square (Kispiac tér, later Szent László tér). Its present appearance comes from the City Hall, the Greek Catholic Bishop’s Palace, the Black Eagle Palace and the three historic churches; the square underwent extensive restoration in 2015.
Union Square, the Secession palaces, the Fortress and the Crișul Repede riverside: the essence of the city in a single day.
