An arm of the National Museum of Art, this museum is in the Palatul Romanit, which goes back to 1822 and was a private home before eventually becoming Romania’s Ministry of Finance.
After the end of the Second World War and the communist takeover, the building became a repository for art seized from Romania’s wealthy families.
There are 44 collections in all, giving you a who’s who of Romanian art from the 19th and early 20th centuries.
