Luxury of freedom

Art Museum

Located in downtown, at the intersection of Tomis and Ferdinand avenues, the Art Museum is an institution that impresses with the artistic values that it holds. Known as the second institution of its kind in Romania, after Bucharest Art Museum, Constanta's Art Museum is housed in a building with a history full of significance for the seaside city. The imposing building that today hosts the collections of the Museum of Art was the first high school of Constanta.

This airy museum in an atrium is heavy on 19th-century realism and landscapes, including those by Nicolae Grigorescu, whose pointillist and Impressionist paintings anticipated more modern movements. Our favorite has to be his Study of a Cow. The upper level is given over to the dark abstract modernist Ion Alin Gheorghiu.

 

Ticket price is 10 lei for an adult and 5 lei for a child.

The Museum is open from Wednesday to Sunday, 9 am - 5 pm.
