"Paul Paltanea" History Museum, History museum in Galați, Romania
The Paul Paltanea History Museum contains over 50,000 cultural artifacts, including prehistoric tools, Roman objects, medieval items, decorative art, and historical documents.
Founded in 1939, the museum experienced disruptions during World War II when collections were evacuated, leading to partial losses of original exhibits.
The museum maintains two primary exhibition areas: one dedicated to ancient history and a lapidarium displaying stone artifacts from different historical periods.
Located at 2 Major Iancu Fotea Street in Galați, the museum welcomes visitors from Wednesday through Sunday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
Archaeological findings from sites like Beresti, Tepu, Puricani, and Negrilesti reveal evidence of human settlements dating back to Paleolithic times.
