The National Museum of Fine Arts occupies two historical buildings along 31 August 1989 Street, including Vladimir Hertza's villa and a former girls gymnasium.
Founded in 1939 by Alexandru Plămădeală and Auguste Baillayre, the museum started with 160 artworks from Bessarabian and Romanian artists in its first Picture Gallery.
