Cluj Napoca- "Gh. Dimitrov" Square
1958 card. Sent without a stamp with a "for pay" seal. You can see in the picture the Carolina Obelisk and the Franciscan church. The square is called now :Museum Square
The “Carolina” Obelisk (The Museum Square) is the oldest lay monument of the city. The statue is a commemorative column, set up to commemorate the visit of the Emperor Francis the First and his wife Carolina Augusta, between 18th and 27th of August 1817. The Emperor attended the ceremony, celebrating the Day of Saint Stephan, (August 20th), chaired the meeting and visited the City Hospital.
In order to build the statue, the Emperor's approval was necessary and funding was raised among the inhabitants of Cluj, but the statue was finished thanks to the financial help of the city District Attorney, Topler Imre. It was inaugurated on the 4th of October 1831, on Saint Francis’s Day.
The ten meter obelisk, the angel wearing the effigy in a crown of laurels and the four stone eagles that hold laurels in their peaks are a masterpiece of Anton Csürös and Nagy Samuel.
Carolina Augusta offered the Hospital from Museum Square a donation and starting with 1818 the hospital bore the name Carolina Hospital, and was destroyed in 1914.
The Carolina Obelisk was initially placed in what is now known as Union Square (the old Great Square). In 1898, during the city restructuring, it was moved to the Museum Square (the old Small Square).
