The museum occupies the old wing of Cotroceni Palace, built in the 1890s for crown prince Ferdinand, while the modern block next door serves as the Romanian presidential residence. The route leads through state rooms with period furniture and paintings and past traces of the 17th-century monastery that gave the hill its name. Visits are in guided groups with ID required; the botanical garden next door makes an easy pairing.
