This expansive complex focuses on archaeological finds from Maramureş, including the mother of all clay-pot collections from the Bronze Age; mining through the ages, once the lifeblood of Baia Mare; and clocks dating from the 18th century. Don't miss the Roman helmet from Satu Mare topped with an eagle and a clock mechanism from Stephen's Tower. Lots of interactive displays for kids.
