Quirky and charming would well describe this unusual family museum situated across from Brasov's central square. The Casa Muresenilor is a memorial to the talented artistic family of Jacob Muresan, a teacher who sensibly married into good looks and money and in 1838 became founding editor of the romantically titled Gazeta Transilvaniei. The museum is housed in the dynastic home, and features letters, photographs, heirlooms and keepsakes of the musical, literary and military members and in-laws of the clan Muresan. No English text, instead a polite, friendly, fluent English-speaking guide will show you around.

Admission 4.50 lei, students and children 1.50 lei.
