Timișoara
Timișoara (Temeswar) – European Capital of Culture 2023
Walk through baroque squares and revolution history
Baroque squares, Art Nouveau façades and the city where the Romanian revolution began in 1989.
Timișoara – Temeswar in German – was European Capital of Culture in 2023 and is regarded as one of Romania's most cosmopolitan cities. Baroque squares, splendid Art Nouveau façades and a vibrant cultural life define the centre of this city in the Banat region.
We walk across Victory Square with the opera house and the Orthodox Metropolitan Cathedral, on to the baroque Union Square. Along the way I tell you about the city's three cultures – and about 1989, when the Romanian revolution began right here.
