\textbf{Abstract:} \section*{Abstract}
Cyclobutadiene is a well-known playground for theoretical chemists and is particularly suitable to test ground- and excited-state methods. Cyclobutadiene is a well-known playground for theoretical chemists and is particularly suitable to test ground- and excited-state methods.
Indeed, due to its high spatial symmetry, especially at the $D_{4h}$ square geometry but also in the $D_{2h}$ rectangular arrangement, the ground and excited states of cyclobutadiene exhibit multi-configurational characters and single-reference methods, such as \alert{standard} adiabatic time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT) or \alert{standard} equation-of-motion coupled cluster (EOM-CC), are notoriously known to struggle in such situations.

In this work, using a large panel of methods and basis sets, we provide an extensive computational study of the automerization barrier (defined as the difference between the square and rectangular ground-state energies) and the vertical excitation energies at $D_{2h}$ and $D_{4h}$ equilibrium structures.
