This is a typical weekend afternoon in one of my favorite places in Timisoara! The building on the far left is the "Baroque Palace." It was built by the Hapsburgs as a (...you guessed it!) royal palace ....ions ago. Just to orient you, the Catholic Church (in photo above) is just to the left, facing the plaza... anfd the Serbian Church (in photo above) is just to the right, doing the same.

so what is the building used for now? the Baroque Palace?
Currently, it is under renovation to restore it to it's original splendor. According to the sign, it appears it will be a museum maybe. Most of these buildings are retail/office on ground floor and apartments above. Some are all offices these days. Most of these restorations come courtesy of other countries who fund it thru European Union initiatives.
