"Fani Tardini" Theatre

In more than half a century, the Orthodox community of Galati was rewarded with an impressive Cathedral, with elements of neo-Romanian style and original interior fresco. The monument today is founded by King Ferdinand I of Hohenzollern -Sigmaringen and Queen Mary.

The oldest medieval church in Galati, subjected to many human hazards, but preserving the first form in which it rose on the spur of the hill since the eighteenth century. Being dependent of the Metropolitan Church of Proilavia, the edifice captures the dual utility (ecclesiastical and military) and the ingenious way in which the brick and stone, originating from the Roman Barbosi camp, blends in a synthesis of glorious history and Christian spirituality.

Manorial house, that later - in 1939 -became a museum, precisely because it belonged to the Cuza family and because it was inhabited by the Chief Magistrate of Galati, the future Lord of the Little Union in 1859.

The building situated in an ensemble including the statue of ruler Alexandru loan Cuza and the Public Garde is now a museum that impresses with the sober elegance of the building and the religious relics present in the exhibition halls. As an episcopal cathedral, the palace was inaugurated in the presenceof the royal family and the governors of the time.

The two sections of the museum are placed on one side of this Danubian Agora: old history and lapidarium, with relics and othertestimonies about the millennial civilization of the place.
