Romulus Nicolin House
Alternativni nazivi: The House with Peacocks
Also known as “The House with Peacocks”, this building designed in the style of 1900s architecture is covered in decoration with vegetal and zoomorphic motifs. Among these, the tree of life stands out, marking the facade’s central axis of composition, flanked by zoomorphic ornaments such as peacocks, wolves and owls. The owner’s initials (NR) are visible in a monogram above the entrance to the building.
Built in 1904 by Romulus Nicolin (a well-known barber in Timișoara at the beginning of the 20th century) and modified in 1910, ”The House with Peacocks” holds a high emotional value for Heritage of Timișoara, as the bas-relief with peacocks has generated the logo of the project. The missing head of the beautiful peacock is a symbol for the state of decay of the city’s cultural heritage.
