Sad but beautiful experience in a communist prison - turned museum. The real history they still don't teach in schools unfortunately. 3 floors with with papers, pictures and memorabilia, nicely arranged showing what was actually behind the curtains of the 'Romanian golden age'. Not sure if English audio guide is available, I believe it would be a good addition if not.See more..

4.5Memorialul Revolutiei(169 reviews) - A must see in Timisoara Wednesday: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM History Museums
This museum is a must see if you want to understand the 1989 Revolution. The revolution began in Timisoara. I saw the introductory video and walked through the many exhibits on two floors. You can watch the revolution unfold in several rooms, each of which focuses on one or two days in December 1989. There were photos and children's art as well as art installations. It is a comprehensive museum and I would highly recommend a visit here.See more..
