Administrative Palace - Galați
The Administrative Palace, constructed during 1904 and 1905 and inaugurated on April 27, 1906, was planned by Ion Mincu, the same architect behind Robescu House. Adorning the primary façade's apex, Frederick Storck's white marble sculptures symbolize 'industry' and 'agriculture.' Notable embellishments comprise twin bronze flags and a sizable clock that plays Joseph Ivanovich's waltz, 'Danube Waves' (1845–1902).
