The modern appearance of Chernivtsi began to form relatively recently - from the second half of the 18th century, thanks to which the city is distinguished by the integrity of the architectural ensembles of the old center, where Byzantine, Gothic, Baroque and other styles intertwined. The most famous architectural monuments appeared in the 19th century. The most valuable of them is the residence of the Bukovinian metropolitans, which now houses the Chernivtsi State University. Many temples of different churches and confessions testify to multiculturalism, interethnic harmony and mutual understanding in the city. Day of the city of Chernivtsi is celebrated on the first Saturday-Sunday of October.

Входило до складу Молдавії, Туреччини, Австро-Угорщини, Румунії. В 1940 році став обласним центром Буковини.

Найвідоміші архітектурні пам'ятки з'явилися в XIX ст. Найціннішим з них є резиденція буковинських митрополитів, в якій зараз розміщений Чернівецький державний університет. Безліч храмів різних церков і конфесій свідчить про багатокультурність, міжетнічну злагоду та взаєморозуміння в місті. День міста Чернівці відзначається в перші суботу-неділю жовтня.

Chernivtsi Regional Art Museum

Museum / gallery

Chernivtsi Art Museum is located in an imposing building, built in 1901 by architect Eisenberg for the Bukovynian Savings Bank. The building is considered one of the best examples of the Viennese Art Nouveau style in Eastern Europe. The upper part of the facade is decorated with a majolica panel, which symbolizes the economic prosperity of Austria-Hungary. The coat of arms of Bukovina on the chest of one of the allegorical figures gives reason to believe that other figures also symbolize the various provinces of the empire. Now the building exhibits rare paintings by Bukovinian artists, from Turkish times to the present day (XVIII-XX centuries): E. Buchevsky, E. Maksimovich, O. Kokhanovskaya, L. Kopelman, M. Ivasyuk, E. Lipetsky, G. von Rezzori, A. Kolnik and others. There is also a collection of O. Shevchukevich's sculptures - miniature terracotta figurines. There is a souvenir shop and a literary café on the ground floor.
