The museum was established to document the period between 1945 and 1989, when Romania was under socialist control. Its collections focus on the changes the country and its society experienced during those decades.
The museum displays a reconstructed classroom with wooden desks and schoolbooks that show how education functioned during the socialist era. The space reflects the daily experience of students within that system.

The collection of military uniforms and medals comes from Romica Birsan, a former reserve officer who gathered these items over many years. This personal initiative made the museum a unique archive of Romanian military history from that era.
