BOOK A GUIDED VISIT!

A visit to the museum can become much more enjoyable if it is accompanied by the stories of the objects, which the museum specialists know best. In order for the visit to be as pleasant as possible, it is necessary to schedule the guides at least three days in advance, at the phone number 0752.108723. If you would like a guided tour on Saturday or Sunday, please make an appointment by Thursday at 16.00pm at the latest. If the scheduled times are not respected, we cannot guarantee the provision of the guide. An appointment is required for group visits (including for participants in the "Otherwise School" national program).

VISIT US FROM HOME!

Sometimes extreme situations bring out the best in us. Perhaps, if we had not been so forced by the situation to stay indoors, we would never have felt so keen a desire to go out, nor would we have appreciated the idea of โ€‹โ€‹exploration so much. But so, we thought to help you escape from your inner universes and travel with us in time and space. This is how the idea of โ€‹โ€‹the columns was born: "Virtual tours", "Archaeology at home", "Museum at home" and "High Classic Transylvania".

THE MUSEUM BEFORE BEING A MUSEUM

The adjacent image is a photograph taken by the famous Cluj photographer Ferenc Veress, a city winter landscape from the end of the 19th century, in which the tower of the Franciscan Church in the current Museum Square and the building where the National Museum of History of Transylvania. I mean us.
The building was not built to be a museum, originally it was a private house, built at the beginning of the 19th century by Major Dรกniel Petrichevich-Horvรกth. A great lover of theater and culture, he hoped to transform it into a center that would coagulate the cultural life of Cluj.
In 1933, the Museum of Antiquities was opened, next to the Institute of Classical Studies, and in 1963, the current history museum was officially born.
Today, even if it is a space dedicated to history, we want to maintain at least part of the original purpose of the building and for it to be a center where, slowly, the cultural life of the city will (re)coagulate, or at least part from her. You can learn more about Cluj and its history if you visit us.
