The Baroque Revival was an architectural style movement in the early 20th century. The term is used to describe architecture which displays important aspects of Baroque style, but is not from the Baroque period proper—i.e., the 17th and 18th centuries.
Some examples of Neo-baroque architecture:
- The Akasaka Palace in Tokyo, Japan
- The Alferaki Palace in Taganrog, Russia
- The Ashton Memorial in Lancaster, England
- The Beloselsky-Belozersky Palace in Saint Petersburg, Russia
- The Bode Museum in Berlin, Germany
- The Burgtheater in Vienna, Austria
- The Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen, Denmark
- The Cluj-Napoca National Theatre in Cluj-Napoca, Romania
- The Ortaköy Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey
- The Dolmabahçe Palace in Istanbul, Turkey
- The Palais Garnier (also known as the Paris Opera) in Paris, France
- The Semper Oper in Dresden, Germany
- The Széchenyi Medicinal Bath in Budapest, Hungary
- The Volkstheater in Vienna, Austria
- The former royal palace, today the National Art Gallery of Bulgaria in Sofia, Bulgaria
- Wenckheim Palace, Budapest, Hungary
- Park Club, Budapest, Hungary
There are also number of post-modern buildings in a style that might be called "Baroque" – for example The Dancing House in Prague by Vlado Milunić and Frank Gehry, who have described it as "new Baroque"[1].
