Amazing place, We went there with a group of friend, not knowing much about the revolution in Romania, and left the place feeling like we really understood the cause and the unfolding of this event. At first the museum seems a bit empty and old so we didn't expected much when we first went in, but it was a mistake. Everything is very well documented, you can really follow the beginning and the unfolding of the revolution, with objects, photos and texts. At the end you also have a 30min movie that sums up all the events. If you want to really understand the city and why it was a really important city for Romania, you must go there ! I remained interested during the whole visit. The tickets are only 1 or 2 euros and it's really worth it, I think it's a must when you go to Timisoara.

The Communist Consumers Museum is designed as a typical Romanian apartment from that era, with a living room, children's room, kitchen and hallways. It displays on shelves, in closets and drawers most of everything that Romanians could buy before the revolution of 1989, from toys to vinyls, TV and radio sets to bicycles, kitchen attire and much, much more. After traveling through time in the museum, one can also enjoy a nice relaxing time in the upstairs bar: Scart Loc Lejer.

This place is a cafe from which you descend into a museum where you will see a lot of household objects and toys from the past and learn something about the everyday life of people who lived during the communist era. An extremely nice girl is working at the cafe and she will explain everything about the museum. They have great home brewed beer and even better background music!

The Banat Village museum of Timisoara , a several hectares park that has a collection of traditional houses from the region of Banat and Crisana. It has a great potential and some of the building are beautifully refurbished, however there were not too many visitors. The entrance fee is 5 Ron - about 1 Euro - and the nice touch is the fact that you actually get a poste card with the Village Museum not just a simple ticket. Some of the houses/buildings are open so the visitors can enter and in front of almost every house there is an information panel so you can get some info about that specific building. Overall the place is very interesting, if you are interested in history and the architecture in the villages of Banat in the past centuries for sure you will find it interesting. If you would like a nice walk I recommend you try this place.
