Although the Romanian Gendarmerie has a history of almost 16 decades the preoccupations with the foundation of an own museum are much more recent. In this respect, in the '70s, 10 rooms for combat traditions were realized.

The Gendarmerie's Museum is dedicated to honor the gendarme officers, warrant officers and conscripts that have served and sacrificed for their country.

The Romanian Gendarmerie's Museum came into existence in 2000 and it is situated within the Inspectorate General of Gendarmerie. It has a memorial, 3 exhibition rooms and a hal of honor.

Set up on 230 sq meters of space, the main exhibition gathers 520 objects, old uniforms, medals, distinctions, communication equipment, engineering and logistics equipment, an important amount of original or photocopied documents which facilitate a brief history of the institution and an outline of the brave actions of gendarmes during the existence of the institutions.
