01. Descriere

Starting with December 2018, a new section of the Iron Gate Museum has opened in Orșova. Arranged in a building provided by the Town Hall, the museum is a modern space, equipped with all the facilities, in which you can admire the traces left by history in these places. It has within it three exhibition registers with distinct themes: nature sciences, history-archeology and ethnography. The collections of the objects exhibited here bring to the visitors images of the tumultuous history of these places, the life of the Turkish locals on the island of Ada Kaleh, as well as complex dioramas with the beauty and wildness of the Iron Gates National Park. There are exhibited collections of weapons of various types, as well as household objects or with cultural and religious significance. Visitors can admire a space with objects and the interior of a traditional Ottoman house. Another exhibition is dedicated to the species of plants, animals and fish that live in this region with the specific Mediterranean climate. New as a way of exposition is a hologram presenter, who appears in the form of an old Turk, and the story told by him carries the imagination of tourists in a foray into the glamorous history of these places.
