Born in 1899 in Brașov (at that time part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire), Gyula Halász emigrated to France, where he began his career under the name Brassaï, a pseudonym derived from "Brassó" – the Hungarian name for Brașov. He became known as the "Eye of Paris" for his famous night photographs of the city during the interwar period.
Throughout his career, Brassaï collaborated with renowned artists such as Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, and became a central figure in the bohemian circles of the French capital. His works are exhibited in famous museums such as MoMA in New York.

Brassaï never forgot his roots. Although he lived most of his life in Paris, he maintained a strong emotional bond with his hometown – Brașov. The fact that the city dedicated a square to him is a symbolic recognition of his contribution to global visual culture. Brassaï Square successfully links the city's artistic past with its present as a tourist destination.
Brassaï Square is not just a place to relax, but also a space dedicated to cultural events that bring the center of Brașov to life.
