The Romanian Athenaeum

**★★★★★ Kyrylo Shevchuk — 2 weeks ago

One of the most beautiful buildings I've ever been to. The atmosphere was incredible, the decor was beautiful, and there's an incredible circular fresco depicting the history of Romania in the main hall. The hall is designed with great views from almost every seat. I recommend going inside and checking it out even if there's no concert going on.

Recommended to visit.

Ticketed visits & where to buy: General visitor access to the concert hall is ticketed (small admission fee, commonly ~15–20 RON); buy tickets at the Athenaeum box office or check the George Enescu Philharmonic / official pages for updates.

• Open only around concerts & tours: The building is open to tourists mainly outside rehearsal and performance times — visiting hours vary monthly and can change with the concert schedule, so check the Athenaeum’s visitor timetable before you go.

Bright and beautiful concert hall in the heart of Bucarest. If you’re not lucky enough to have tickets at least visit this marvelous venue to enjoy the architecture and the spirit of 19 century.

It's a beautiful but small place. It takes about thirty minutes to see it and take pictures. It consists of a main hall, a lobby, and stairs. You must have cash to buy tickets as they do not accept cards. It took just a few minutes to get in. Recommendd place to visit 👍👍
