The Romanian Plumber Museum

Reviewed By XeqT - Bucharest, Romania

Small art museum with lots of ironically exhibits designed by Ion Barbu - local artist. The pieces of art are actual facts from our day to day life, starting with politics and ending with some good old cliches - all treated with the same irony and humor by Ion Barbu. I really laughed here.

Expozitie Inedita: Ev Mediu. Tortura Si Executie

"Torture Exhibition" - the most common methods of torture and execution during the Middle Ages.

Reviewed By PopisteanuG - Bucharest, Romania

it's a good place to be happy for our nowadays life many methods of torture are presented, still used in the 18th century, only 230 years ago those methods had the aim to save the souls of the convicted people, for even ordinary deeds, in the name of God; actually, the prosecutors of those times despised the God ultimate creation, the man five years before French Revolution, two Romanians, leaders of an important local uprising, were killed using one the methods presented there - Horea and Closca; look at the wheel and try to think what they felt

We visited this unique romanian museum on saturday when the majority of the attractions in Arad are closed. Spent 1 hr being fascinated about all the computers and laptops from 10, 20 30 and 40 years ago (neither large IT universities in Romania could bot gather such a nice collection). Got some very nice souvenirs: calendars and mini IT boards as key chains. The person founding the museum from his personal money is definitely a passionate IT fan and he wants to further developp the museum. The bookings for visit (free entrance) can be prior made through phone or facebook page very easy.
