CASA CEAUŞESCU
Go there and contact
Opened in 2016, twenty-seven years after the dictator's fall, the Spring Palace(Palatul Primăverii) was his private residence for a quarter of a century. Located in a district reserved for the nomenklatura, it was built in the mid-1960s, then enlarged in the 1970s. It has some 80 rooms, and the 45-minute guided tour takes you through fifteen of them. The interiors, decorated in Renaissance and Rococo style, are luxurious and comfortable, furnished with paintings by local masters, handmade silk tapestries, sumptuous crystal chandeliers, objets d'art of all kinds and beautiful mosaics, such as those adorning the indoor swimming pool. You'll stroll through the offices, salons, dining room, winter garden... A marble staircase leads upstairs, where each of the Ceaușescu's three children had their own little apartment, with a bedroom, study and bathroom. The spouses also had their own private suite, as well as a gold-plated bathroom that had particularly scandalized, just after the revolution. You'll also see the cinema room, the couple's vast dressing room and, by the pool, the whirlpool, sauna and tanning booth. Outside, peacocks roam the garden: they are the descendants of those who lived there in Ceaușescu's time! For a tidy sum, you can opt for the full tour, which also includes the trophy room, the bunker and the underground tunnel.
