Built by public donation — Romanians literally 'gave a penny for the Athenaeum' to fund their national concert hall

A neoclassical concert hall built in 1888 that's become the symbol of Romanian culture. The George Enescu Philharmonic performs here. The interior dome fresco depicts key moments in Romanian history in 70m of continuous narrative.
