The old photo of the Chișinău City Hall was found on a wonderful website with photos of the Bessarabia region. The exact age of the photo is not documented, but the website says, that is taken from a book from 1903 and the building was errected in 1901.It must therefore be from 1901-1903.

Chișinău City Hall

"Chișinău City Hall (Romanian: Primăria municipiului Chișinău) is a historical and architectural monument built in Italian Gothic style located in Central Chișinău, Moldova. Originally constructed to house the city Duma in 1901, the building was nearly destroyed during World War II. It was rebuilt in the postwar period based on surviving images and construction plans."
