01. Descriere

The building of the National Theatre in Caracal is surely one of the most representative and beautiful works of architecture, more than a century old. Construction work began on July 14, 1896, following the plans of Austrian architect Franz Bileck, the construction was completed in 1901. In that year, Caracal had about 12,000 inhabitants and an exceptional cultural life. Between 1959 and 1960 major renovation work was carried out. The devastating fire of 1987 put an end to theatrical performances here, to everyone’s regret. The reconstruction works took many years, but finally on December 19, 2008 this building could be reopened to the general public, now having the brilliance and elegance of former times. All the architecture and decoration details were meticulously made, the painting completely remade, and the performance hall was equipped with modern sound  and lighting equipment.
