Must-see attractions

Alexandru Borza Botanic Gardens

　　These wonderfully relaxing gardens comprise rockeries, neoclassical statues peeping from tangles of rose, and a Japanese-style garden with a crimson bridge spanning a turtle pond. At the heart of the gardens, find the Botanical Museum (Muzeul Botanic), exhibiting vegetal curios from bottled fruits to fern fossils. ...

National Art Museum

　　The permanent collection of this sizeable gallery has creaky rooms featuring 18th- and 19th-century art, mostly portraits of nobles and their bewigged wives, plus landscapes and religious icons. It’s a pleasant collection, though not unmissable. The reason to visit is the stately setting within baroque Bánffy Palace, which hosted Habsburg...

Pharmacy History Collection

　　Cluj-Napoca’s oldest pharmacy building holds an intriguing collection of medical miscellany. ‘Crab eyes’, skulls and powdered mummy are just a few of the cures on display in these antique-filled rooms. The prettiest is the Officina, a polished room with dark filigree swirling around its walls. You’ll also learn that the...

Parcul Etnografic Romulus Vuia

　　Traditional architecture from around Romania has been faithfully reassembled at this open-air museum, 5km northwest of central Cluj.

Its neo-Gothic clock tower (1859) stands 80m high, while original Gothic features – such as the 1444 front portal – can still be admired. Inside, soaring rib vaults lift...

Fabrica de Pensule

　　More of a living, breathing creative space than a gallery, Fabrica de Pensule teems with just-made artwork by local and foreign creators who use this former paintbrush factory as a studio. Visits are by free guided tour, and depending on how you like your art, you’ll either adore visiting this...

Hungarian Cemetery

　　Founded in the 16th century, this stately cemetery is a memorable place to stroll among elegant tombs and mausoleums of Transylvanian poets and composers, while crows call from the surrounding trees. Enter it downhill from Str Avram Iancu, south of the main square. ...

Statue of Matthias Corvinus

　　Hogging the limelight in front of St Michael’s Church is a bulky 1902 statue of horseback Matthias Corvinus, the famous 15th-century Hungarian king. 　　Keen to work himself into the statue, the sculptor added his own face to one of the warriors by Matthias' side (the glowering chap on the far...
