Vasile Parvan Museum

The administrative palace, built in 1890, was the headquarters of the Tutova county prefecture until the administrative reform of the communist regime in 1950. The opposite was the headquarters of the Tutova county Tibunal called the Jury Court. The museum was founded by the elite of the Barlad intellectuals on April 10, 1914, from the desire to collect cultural goods in a specialized institution that would hoard and exploit them for the general public.

Among them, prof. Stroe Belloescu, who from his personal fortune built a building in 1909, is the seat of the first public library and the first museum. The materialization of the initiators' wishes has seen a series of stages, a start-up, search, overcome, and conquest of weights, to which the contribution of a series of specialists, whose work, with dedication, passion and loyalty , was put at the service of the national cultural heritage values.  The Museum, as a patrimony, began with the collection of various collections as domains, thus setting up the foundations of a mixed museum, like the vast majority of the museums in the country, with today's sections: archeology-history, art, Barlad personalities. From the point of view of origin, the patrimony, divided on the four sections of the museum, was built and enriched during the existence of the museum through research, transfers, acquisitions and last but not least, by donations.

The museum, in its 100 years, has received many donations from great personalities, known as passionate collectors, true mecena who donated their collected collections in a life of man, with much science, money, time and a lot of passion, without any pecuniary clause. We only remind professor dr. Ion Chiricuta (1917-1988) and Dr. Marcel Vainfeld (1917-1990), both sons of the city, whose donations for the first time enriched the heritage of the museum with universal art. At present, the museum offers to the large public permanent exhibitions, various in thematic aspect.
