Museum of History and Archaeology
About This Museum
Tucked away in the heart of Tulcea, this museum is a true gateway to the ancient world, built on layers of history itself. I was completely captivated by the sheer depth of time on display, from prehistoric tools to Roman marble. The atmosphere is wonderfully hushed and scholarly, inviting you to lean in close and discover the stories whispered by these ancient objects. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a detective piecing together the puzzle of human civilization along the Danube.
Collection Highlights
The star of the show is undoubtedly 'The Thinker of Hamangia', a mesmerizing Neolithic clay figurine that feels incredibly modern in its contemplative pose. You'll also find an impressive collection of Roman epigraphs and a reconstructed Dacian dwelling that really brings the domestic life of this region's early inhabitants to life.
