Romania Sotheby’s International Realty has listed for sale the building of the former Odeon Theatre in Galați for €690,000. Originally built in 1911 by Apostol P. Papadopol, an eminent merchant and appreciated philanthropist, the former Odeon Theatre is a historical and cultural landmark. The building was recognized by the press of its time as “The most elegant theatre in Galați.”


The building has its original architectural elements intact, including the meticulously renovated façade, according to Sotheby’s. 

”The interior, awaiting a new destination, offers endless possibilities. Viewers and investors can reimagine this space as a special cinema, reviving the golden age of cinema, or as a magnificent theatre for exciting live performances. It also has the potential to be transformed into a prestigious restaurant, an exclusive venue to host unforgettable events or a vibrant cultural centre,” said the agency managing the sale in a press release. 

In the same city, Romania Sotheby’s International Realty has previously sold Auschnitt House, an emblematic building which has hosted various commercial activities, such as a casino and restaurant, in recent years.

Green finance becomes the new rule for Romanian real estate

by Property Forum
Sustainability criteria are playing an increasing role when banks finance real estate projects in Romania, while buildings that meet green finance standards can obtain better terms. These are the findings of a study carried out by Colliers on the local market, based on responses from four commercial banks, which together hold more than half of the Romanian banking system's assets, and two multilateral development banks active in the real estate sector. The clearest rule identified for new buildings is the NZEB-10% standard, applied by all institutions analysed.
