Established on December 30, 1956, and since then in a continuous process of expansion and modernization, the County Museum of Natural Sciences Pahova presents itself today as an important cultural-scientific and educational institution of the county, being recognized as one of the most serious and prestigious centers of this profile in Romania. Exhibition activity and direct work with the public are carried out in nine museum sections, each with a well-defined identity from the point of view of the scientific theme and the cultural-educational functionality, while also having a judicious territorial distribution, being located both in the county main city, as well as in three geographical ar...eas with a great cultural and tourist significance: the Museum of the Man and the Aquarium - in Ploieşti, in the Palace of Culture, the Petroleum Museum - in Ploieşti, the Museum of the Natural Reservation Bucegi - in Sinaia, the Salt Museum in Slănic, - Museum "Mine Flowers" and Anthropology Museum "Francisc I. Rainer" - in Cheia, Museum "The Nature of the Teleajen Valley" - in Vălenii de Munte, Botanical Garden - in Bucov. The uniqueness of this museum among its institutions is its profoundly educational character, having a brand assumed as MUSEUM-SCHOOL through the educational offer for pupils and preschools, but also due to the interactive presentation of the permanent exhibitions using modern exposure techniques such as augmented reality and VR technology. Besides the 9 museum sections, the museum has a National Cultural Heritage Lab and 10 patrimonial warehouses, organized as follows: Mineral Warehouse, Palaeontology Depot, Botanical Superior Plants, Botanical Inferior Plants, Old Pharmacy Deposit, Entomology Deposit, Malacology Deposit, Warehouse Vertebrates, Wet and Anatomic Paths Warehouse, Mortar and Mural Painting Store.
