    2,1 km

    Oradea Citadel

    A pentagonal fortress with five corner bastions — Ciunt, Bethlen, Crăișorul, Roșu and Aurit — and a water-filled moat. Its present shape was built in stages between the 16th and 18th centuries, to the designs of Italian architects. The precinct holds sixteen buildings: the Princely Palace, built between 1620 and 1629, houses the Oradea City Museum, while the others hold craft workshops, galleries and cultural venues.
