The Bolyai Museum - Târgu Mureș

The Bolyai Museum, which was founded in 1937, was originally set up in one of the chambers at the Library of the Calvinist College in Targu-Mures, showcasing the surviving personal items belonging to the two ingenious mathematicians. In 1955, the memorial museum and the library of the college were arranged in the right wing of the Teleki Library building, and a few years later, the Bolyai memorial room was moved to the ground floor, where it can be found today. In addition to their personal items, such as Bolyai Farkas' chess set, János Bolyai's geometric compases set, and a unique stove made by Bolyai Farkas, you can also see some pieces of their personal furniture, or the pseudosphere wooden model, representing the non-Euclidean geometry.

Address: Teleki Library, Bolyai str. no. 17.
Visiting program: Tuesday - Friday: 10 - 17:30
