The National Museum of Ethnography and History in Chisinau is located in the area of the old center, there is no parking for a car here. There is a convenient website with information, working hours, ticket prices.
A wonderful museum! Everything is detailed and clear. Museum navigation is a separate art form. You start from the very beginning (which you didn't know about) and end up with modern and familiar facts.
A great place to visit the museum exposition. Thank you for your safety and the opportunity to remember and see your native lands and their culture even on rare visits home.
I've wanted to come here for a long time - it's a very beautiful building from the outside and I knew that the museum has a good collection of Moldovan carpets, and I love them very much. Finally came here. Although there is a certain charm in old buildings and museums, the administration should still think about modernizing the ways of presenting information. It is definitely worth going here because of the collection of carpets and huge skeletons of fossil elephants. Children's toys in the form of coffins and dolls depicting the dead were surprised at the exhibition. But, given the complex Moldovan funeral rituals, it is definitely interesting for children to play it.
The museum staff has funny passages behind the scenery, which are accessed by narrow doors. It would be interesting to get there too :)
It will be interesting for both adults and children to visit

A fairly large museum telling about our history and fauna. An inexpensive ticket for admission is only 10 lei.
Cons: the 2nd floor is closed, the toilet is not working

It is unclear where the entrance is. The main gate is closed.
There are no inscriptions in English explaining whether the museum works at all or not
