The World Art Nouveau Day was established in 2013 in order to celebrate the memory of two great representatives of the architectural style - Antonio Gaudi and Odon Lechner. Since then, a variety of events have been held worldwide on 10 June, bringing to the public's attention the people and works that marked this artistic movement, as well as the stories and values of Europe's Art Nouveau heritage.
The rich heritage built in the Art Nouveau style in Oradea, hundreds of buildings in the historic center, rehabilitated or in progress of rehabilitation, have determined, in February 2012, the inclusion of Oradea, the only city in Romania, in the International Network of Art Nouveau Cities. Established in 1999, this structure includes major European cities such as Helsinki, Barcelona, Glasgow and Budapest.
The local administration is unfolding an extensive multiannual programme of rehabilitation of heritage buildings in the historic center of the city in order to enhance their value.
