Lonely Planet review for National History Museum

On Calea Victoriei, the National History Museum, housed in the neoclassical ex-Post Office Palace (1894) has a dismantled replica of the 2nd-century AD Trajan's Column; its 2500 characters retell the Dacian Wars against Rome (the location of the original column).

Go to panel 18 to see decapitated heads, panel 35 to see Dacian women torture Romans, or panel 116 for Dacian King Decebal's suicide. There's also a gold-crammed treasury with a gold-studded helmet from the 4th century BC.
