The museum was established in 1954, starting from the donation made by Mircea V. Babeş. It was inaugurated in 1955 in the beautiful villa in Andrei Mureşianu Street. The collection evokes the personality of the great scholar Victor Babeş (1854 - 1926), who had great achievements in the fields of bacteriology and serotherapy. The museum displays: scientific manuscripts, photographs, books written by Babeş, personal belongings, the scholar's library, pieces of furniture, the painting collection (O. Băncilă, C. Baba), statuettes, the collection of musical works. The exhibits illustrate the scholar's childhood, his great scientific discoveries (over 50 microbes..., viruses, pathogenic parasites).
