Ever since the foundation of the ”Mihai Eminescu” School we had the intention to set up a museum space, the idea belonging to the late teacher Gheorghe Rădulescu. As former student and as teacher of the school since 1979, I considered it necessary to continue the research work on the local history, together with my students very keen on history. Although the space existing in the school is not enough to exhibit all the objects and only those that are valuable from historical point of view. Thus, they have been exhibited in small selections that make up the permanent exhibition of the school museum. The Archaeological Collection is made up of artifacts from the Stone Age to ...Modern times, discovered in the sites of the our county, or other sites in the country. The Coin Collection of the school museum is made up of Romanian coins or banknotes alongside with a lot of decorations and medals issued on various anniversaries of national and international historical events. Although the school is located in the middle of the city, we considered it necessary to arrange an Ethnographic room, specific for the Vlaşca area, made up of a collection of weavings, wooden furniture, ceramics, folk costumes and household objects. Local history is illustrated by various collections: old books, technical corner, military history, “Teohari Antonescu” museum in Giurgiu, with which we still cooperate. The three-rooms of the museum in the school is used both as an attraction for the visitors and resource for teaching and documentary aide for the History and Romanian literature classes. The museum of School no. 4 ”Mihai Eminescu” was visited by many people keen on history and by personalities from Romania and abroad, their impressions being written in the “Golden Book” of the school museum.
