Primary and Secondary School of Visual and/or Musical arts from Târgu Mureș, Romania. Originally it belonged to the Roman Catholic Church together with several other buildings nearby and it housed a nunnery. As a school it was established in 1949 and it was expanded into its modern day form, right after communism took over the country. Therefore the school's building can be separated by multiple styles of architecture, one that carries classical motifs - the main section - and stems back possibly multiple centuries, and the other is a communistic extension. In one the classrooms a recently uncovered embedded memorial can be seen engraved in Hungarian. I would be happy to learn some more about these stuff, because they usually keep this sort of information secret.
