"The First Romanian School" Museum

A museum I can see more potential to despite it's small size which of course was the reason for the importance. The personnel at that time was a very kind and personable man Cris. He also suggested me to visit the church across which was so beautiful

By the time I visited the museum it was partially closed for renovation. It is more like a historical milestone then a museum. Frankly, not much to see here. The great thing about it were the sights, the location the surroundings. A beautiful place to visit in the old side of town. Also the gentleman selling tickets at the entrance was really kind, helpful, giving us a a small but pleasant tour of this tiny museum, with a lot of valuable history behind. So if you got some thirty minutes to invest in visiting, your curiousity will be rewarded.

The First Romanian School is located in Brașov, specifically in the courtyard of a church. It is said to have visiting hours that include the interior, but unfortunately, I couldn’t access it due to discrepancies in the schedule—a problem I noticed other visitors encountered as well. The courtyard’s walls add to the charm of the site, harmonizing beautifully with both the church and the school. I believe this landmark is a must-visit, as it allows you to step onto the grounds where education in Romania first began.

It's cute, but it's just two rooms. Most worthwhile thing about heading this way is the church right next to it and the territory around.

FIRST: THE ENTRANCE TO THE MUSEUM IS NOT AT THE SCHOOL'S DOOR, BUT NEXT GATE TO THE RIGHT OF THE MAIN GATE. There is a huge sign outside the gate, but the message is not very clear and many people miss it. This being said, we had an outstanding experience, a real dive in Romanian history and culture. The guide, who had advanced studies in religion and history, was extremely competent and he diligently answered all our questions.

Very interesting experience! We had a very nice and knowledgeable guide. Learnt a lot about the history of Romanian school and first books The guide was friendly and held the whole tour in English. However, we felt that the whole tour went on too quickly and the guide was very rushed, moving from subject to subject almost immediately and without leaving any time for questions

Prima Scoala Romaneasca is a must see in Brasov, the visitors can learn about romanian language and hymn.

Such an interesting museum! ✅ Very kind and funny guide - many detailed explanations, presented to the children's liking. Tickets cannot be bought in advance. No appointments are made for groups. Maybe change this rule, it would be easier for groups. Visited November 2023
