The center of the Iași Theater burned on the night of February 17-18, 1888 and was gradually rebuilt in the following years. As the decoration of the hall, a Venetian crystal chandelier with over 100 bulbs was chosen in October 1896 as part of the first tests of electric lighting. The inauguration took place on December 1, 1896. Source images and text (abbreviated): Turism Iași.
