    (Translated by Google) July 18, 2019. At this time, the Museum owns a beautiful collection of naive icons, most of them in Transylvania. There are also many popular costumes from all over the country. The entrance fee is only 5 lei. There is also an inside store where you can buy naive icons, popular masks. The only two minuses are the lack of air and the fact that as soon as you get in, the museographer ladies disappear as if you were shooting the bomb. The same defects can be found at the History Museum. But do not give it back, it's worth visiting. (Original) 18 iulie 2019. La această dată Muzeul deține o frumoasă colecție de icoane naive, majoritatea din Transilvania. De asemenea sunt foarte multe costume populare din toate zonele țării. Taxa de intrare este doar 5 lei. Există și un magazin in interior de unde se pot cumpăra icoane naive, măști populare. Singurele două minusuri sunt lipsa aerului și faptul că imediat cum intri, doamnele muzeograf dispar de parcă ai tras cu bomba. Aceleași defecte le poți întâlni și la Muzeul de Istorie. Dar asta să nu te dea înapoi, merită vizitat.

    It's size doesn't necessarily reflect the richness of dobrujan traditions and respectivly romanian ones. For sure it has many valuable items there, that by themselves are real treasures, so if you are nearby, you should make some time to visit. Also some of the most passionate about people can be found here.

    It's a nice museum with beautiful traditional items and clothing!! Although there are downsides. The museum isn't the largest museum out there, and photos are not allowed, which is okay. But for me the awkwardness was the staff downstairs constantly walking around downstairs, and every time they walked past me, they were looking at me. I just wanted to enjoy the exhibits without feeling like I'm being watched. Upstairs the staff are much more calm, and that's where the beautiful traditional clothing is, as well as other items!! Fell in love with the traditional appearances! Some museums in Romania will have staff come turn lights on in rooms you're going to go into, and watch and wait for you to leave those rooms, to turn lights off again. Its not an issue and doesn't affect my rating, just something to be aware of. They do speak very little English, but any Romanian language knowledge will help you, of which I have basic knowledge. Security guard is a cool guy..... This would be a 5 star if it wasn't for that annoying being watched experience. There are proper reasons for no photos. The flash if used, damages items. If you love traditional Romanian designs, such as myself, you'll like this museum.

    (Translated by Google) A museum to see, in a cozy building. Traditional masks, a superb collection of folk costumes and pictures framed from different regions of the country, icons, erasers, bark, various fabrics, household vessels, etc. Entry 5 lei. It also has a store with specific products. (Original) Un muzeu de vazut, intr-o cladire cocheta.

  • 5/5 Razvan R. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The collections of art objects, clothing and ornaments are very refined, with predominantly Turkish and Tataras influences. It's worth visiting for eye sight, mind and proximity to Asia Minor cultures. (Original) Colectiile de obiecte de arta, imbracaminte si podoabe sunt foarte rafinate, cu influente preponderent turcesti si tatarasti. Merita vizitat pentru desfatarea ochilor, a mintii si pentru apropierea de culturile din Asia Mica.

  • 4/5 cristian d. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A tourist destination that should not be missing from any tourist's list. Besides the folk art objects exhibited, the museum also owns a shop from where can be bought including Romanian folk costumes. Enter and know your culture and ancient origins. In other parts history is made. Here, in Dobrudja, we find it all the way. Eyes and open minds and respect we need. (Original) Un obiectiv turistic ce nu ar trebui sa lipseasca din lista oricarui turist. Pe langa obiectele de arta populara expuse, muzeul detine si un magazin de unde pot fi achizitionate inclusiv costume populare romanesti. Intrati si cunoasteti-va cultura si originile stravechi. In alte parti istoria se confectioneaza. Aici, in Dobrogea, o gasim la tot pasul. Ochi si minți deschise precum si respect ne trebuie.

Daca nu se intervine in consolidarea ei... va avea aceeasi soarta ca celelalte cladiri din zona.

  • 5/5 Eu V. 9 months ago on Google
    The museum is established on the basis of the painting and sculpture collections of the Pinacotheque of Constanta City Hall and Balchik (opened between 1935-1937); and in time, it was enriched with important works transferred from the National Museum of Art in Bucharest, as well as through acquisitions and donations made by artists Marius Bunescu, Ion Jalea or Boris Caragea. It is worth visiting, you can see some of your tradition RO.
