Museum sights in Constanţa

  1. A

    History & Archaeological Museum

    Constanţa's most renowned attraction is the History & Archaeological Museum . There's something here for everyone. The kids will like the bones of a 2nd-century woman and the mammoth tusks; otherwise there are many 2nd-century Roman statues (discovered under the old train station in 1962) and 4th-century Roman coins. The centrepiece is a fantastic sculpture of the snake god Glykon, which is carved from a single block of marble.
