Lonely Planet review for National History Museum of Transylvania

The National History Museum of Transylvania, which dates from 1859, is only half open. The history stops when things start to get interesting (and controversial) - when Hungarians and Romanians started living in the same neck of the woods (that wing should be re-opened in 2007).

In these quiet halls you can see a mummy from Egypt, lots of Roman pieces, ghoulish remains of three humans from the area's first tombs (they were probably Indo-Europeans, as Dacians cremated corpses), and a map that tries to make sense of migration in the area.
