National historic site in Bucharest, Romania
The Zambaccian Museum in Bucharest, Romania is a museum in the former home of Krikor Zambaccian, a businessman and art collector. The museum was founded in the Dorobanți neighbourhood in 1947, closed by the Nicolae Ceaușescu regime in 1977, and re-opened in 1992. It is now a branch of The National Museum of Art of Romania. Its collection includes works by Romanian artists—including a masterful portrait of Zambaccian himself by Corneliu Baba—and works by several French impressionists. It is located not far from Piața Dorobanților on a street now renamed after Zambaccian.
