The current Central Mineral Baths building was designed in the Vienna Secession style, but integrating typically Bulgarian, Byzantine and Eastern Orthodox ornamental elements, by the architects Petko Momchilov and Friedrich Grünanger in 1904–1905 and approved on 30 January 1906, as projects by an Austrian (in 1889) and a French architect (in 1901) were declined.
Sofia Synagogue (Pass by)
In the early 20th century, the Jewish community of Sofia (lead by rabbi Dr. Ehrenpreis and president of the community Ezra Sol) collected donations and invited the Viennese architect Friedrich Grünanger to prepare a project for the Synagogue. You can see the names of the 10 "top contributors" to the left on the wall after entering. In just 4 years, the architect managed to organise and complete the construction. Tombstones from an old Jewish cemetery were used to build the base of the Synagogue.
