The George Severeanu Museum is a quieter Bucharest museum, set in the former home of radiologist and collector George Severeanu and his wife Maria. Its collections lean toward archaeology and numismatics: ancient pottery, glass, coins, gems, and small objects that reward slow looking.
It is a good antidote to Bucharest's larger, louder museums. Come if you like house museums, antiquities, or the story of private collecting becoming public heritage; the scale is manageable and the setting gives the objects a more intimate frame.
