The Palace of the Jewish Community
At the beginning of the last century, the Jewish community of Timișoara obtained a building permit for a large scale building that would occupy four house lots, attributing its design to the famed Budapest architect Lipót Baumhorn, who proposed a monumental building in Secession style, with a commercial ground floor and three stories. While the main façades were richly decorated with geometrical, vegetal, and anthropomorphic motifs, the inner façades of the building are treated differently, with exposed brick creating texture and contrast. The building is attractive through its monumental quality and the rich decoration that adorns it in a manner characteristic of Baumhorn’s style.
