The Palace of Justice was built between 1898 and 1902 in the eclectic style. It is a representative building of Belle Époque architecture, designed by the architect Gyula Wagner. The building houses several courts, including the Cluj Court of Appeal. The Palace of Justice is shaped like an irregular quadrangle and has thirteen courtyards that provide ventilation and lighting. There are two entrances: one on the north façade and a second on the west façade. Both façades are richly decorated.
