    A faithful replica of the Capitoline Wolf, which according to legend suckled the founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus, has stood in Cluj-Napoca since September 28, 1921. It is a gift from the Italian state to the city and is intended to remind people of their shared Romanesque roots. The statue, whose base is decorated with a relief of Emperor Trajan and the inscription "Alla citta di Cluj, Roma Madre, MCMXXI", was moved several times until it found its current location in the middle of the Eroilor Boulevards.

      This stunning statue on Eroilor Boulevard depicts the capitol she-wolf suckling the two founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus.
      The statue was a gift from the Italian state, which donated a total of five copies of the Roman original to Bucharest, Cluj, Chişinău, Timişoara and Târgu-Mureş. This was intended to document the unity of Romanians from all parts of the country and their attachment to Italy (Lazio).

        This statue somehow looks familiar to me from Rome 😄
