The George Enescu National Museum is a small but interesting museum located in a beautiful building. It is well organized and offers a stunning interior. The museum focuses on the life and works of the renowned local musician, George Enescu. Visitors can expect to see Enescu's personal objects and listen to his music. Despite the museum's limited size, it is definitely worth a visit, especially considering the affordable ticket price. However, some visitors have noted that the building itself is in need of serious renovation and maintenance. The lack of care from the authorities has resulted in an advanced state of decay for the museum. Despite these drawbacks, the museum holds a lot of potential and provides a unique glimpse into the life of George Enescu.

Huge potential for this historical place but, due to lack of interest from the authorities meant to manage the place this building is in an advanced state of decay.

As with most museums in Bucharest no particular effort is made to tell the visitor a story. One is left with no understanding of what Mr. George Enescu meant for Romania. All we get to see are some random paraphernalia. Only 2-3 rooms on the groundfl..

The building is beautiful at the surface, but upon closer inspection it is clearly crumbling both on the inside and out. The garden behind the museum is spacious but neglected.

Set in a beautiful Cantacuzino palace on the Victory street, it boasts Enescu’s memorabilia in a few beautiful rooms; a little worn out; toilet is very “rustic”; kind staff; Enescu’s house in the rear - closed;

Impressive art noveau style building which illustrates the life and opera of the great musician George Enescu. Not so well maintained inside yet the interior decorations impresses through sculptural ornamentation and mural paintings.
