We visited the museum with the family and were impressed by the quality of the exhibitions. The children's workshop was a wonderful experience — the kids left with their own creations. The staff was very friendly and well-trained.

The "Urban Reflections" exhibition is absolutely fascinating. The video installations are immersive and make you think differently about the city you live in. I recommend the guided tour — the curator explains everything excellently.

The building is gorgeous, tastefully restored. The permanent collection is worth visiting. The only downside: there is no cafe in the museum, but there are many options in the area.

I bring my high school students every semester. The educational program is well-structured, age-adapted. The students leave enthusiastic and inspired. A model of museum education in Romania.

Surprisingly good for a city the size of Cluj. The exhibitions are at European level, the space is excellently arranged. The English audio guide is very useful. I will return!
