Museum of the Communist Consumer
Muzeul Consumatorului Comunist
A nostalgic private museum hidden inside a bar, packed with appliances, toys and everyday goods from the Ceaușescu era.
This private museum is attached to a popular café-bar. Several rooms recreate the living rooms and kitchens of ordinary Romanian families in the 1970s and 1980s, filled with radios, televisions, enamel ware, snack packaging and children's toys from the period. Visitors may touch and photograph the exhibits, offering an interesting window onto everyday life in the socialist era. Admission is usually free or by voluntary donation. Opening hours follow the bar, from afternoon until night. It lies about 2 km from the city centre.
