Palatul Dicasterial (Dicasterial Palace), Timisoara
Dicasterial Palace houses the headquarters of Timisorean Court, Timis Tribunal and Court of Appeal.

The palace is a monumental construction, which for a long time, was the grandest building in Timisoara, due to the fact that it was built on a long, three-street stretch. At the beginning, the palace had 273 offices, 34 rooms for servants, 34 kitchens, 65 cellars, 27 warehouses; all of these were grouped within three interior yards. The building was raised in the Italian Renaissance style, imitating the Medici Palace in Florence.
