What you need to know
- Three exhibitions open for now, since renovation works limit the visit to the Treasure, the column cast, the Lapidarium and a few temporary shows in the central hall
- No food, scooters or umbrellas in the exhibitions, and no large luggage, so leave snacks and ride-ons at home
- No parking at the museum, so come by metro: Universitate and Piața Unirii stations are both a short walk
About
The museum fills the former Palace of the Posts, built in the 1890s. The Historical Treasure holds over 3,000 pieces of precious metal and gems, including Dacian gold bracelets from Sarmizegetusa Regia. A full-size cast of Trajan's Column is laid out in sections in a hall built for it, with over 100 scenes of the Dacian wars. The Lapidarium shows inscribed and carved stone from Roman and medieval times.
