We’ve already figured out that we live in a wonderful world: the most interesting museums in Romania will show you there are reasons to smile and wonder closer than you might imagine.
Traveling around the country, you will discover Romanians choosing to pay homage to the most interesting things. Some of these places are not just fascinating, but also unique in Europe and in the entire world.
In Sibiu, for a symbolic price, you can visit the Pharmacy History Museum (Muzeul de Istorie a Farmaciei). If you didn’t dislike Chemistry in school, you will be truly fascinated by the collection of utensils, powders and potions that take us on tour of the historical periods of pharmacy.
The Danube Delta is, as we well know, a unique place in Europe and even in the world. In Tulcea, you can comfortably “visit” a part of its splendors: fish tanks, archaeological and arts artifacts are just a few of the attractions of the Danube Delta Museum (Muzeul Deltei Dunarii).
Who said Romanians have no sense of humor? Even when it can be regarded as darker than the night, let’s remember that Romania is home to the only Happy Cemetery in Sapanta.
A museum that is unique on our continent is the Cucuteni Museum in Piatra Neamt, dedicated exclusively to the prehistoric civilization in the Black Sea region.
Have you hear of the Gold Museum in Brad? Open for over a century, this museum owns over 2000 pieces and is a tribute to gold and mining.
In the old Bucharest, don’t forget to visit the Peasant’s Museum (Muzeul Taranului Roman). With its impressive collection numbering over 90.000 pieces, with the oldest ceramic piece dating back to 1746, the museum is fascinating for any visitor, transporting them to the atemporal land of the Carpathians. Also in the Capital, you can visit the Archeology Museum Grigore Antipa, of which we have already talked. It is well worth renting a car in Romania and traveling as extensively as possible!
