The Agrarian Bank Palace (Romanian: Palatul Băncii Agrare) is a historic building in Liberty Square, Timișoara, Romania. Designed by Karl May as the headquarters of the Agrarian Savings Bank (Hungarian: Agrár Takarékpénztár; founded in 1869)[1] and built in 1901, the building's façade was reconstructed in 1934 in the modern style by architect Konrad Richter.[2] Subsequently, the building housed the Corvina bookstore, the Italian bank, the consulate, and later the CEC Bank.[2][3]
