National Museum of History of Moldova
The National Museum of History of Moldova is a white stone construction with pyramidal towers in corners and a large scar around which you can see various exhibits.
The museum has been located since its inception in the historic building of Gymnasium No. 1 boys, later Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu Boys High School. Since 1987 the History Museum has been located here. Today, it houses 12 exhibition halls and more than three hundred thousand exhibits. Here is presented in detail the history of Moldova from the prehistoric era to the 20th century.
In the museum's garden you will find the statue of Lupoaicei – Lupa Capitolina, a copy of the original monument located in the Italian capital, which was donated to Chisinau in 1926. Unfortunately, the monument disappeared without a trace in 1940, but in the late 1980s it was decided to recreate and return it to the museum.
