Transylvanian Basin Collection

The Transylvanian Basin Collection is unique in Romania because it features a fossil inventory that illustrates the geological evolution of the Transylvanian Basin over several million years, dating back to the Jurassic period (approximately 190 million years ago).

Type Collection

The type collection is the most valuable from a scientific perspective, as it brings together fossil species (plants and animals) that are new to science.

Outdoor Collection

The outdoor collection is on display in the inner courtyard of Babeș-Bolyai University, at the entrance to the Museum of Paleontology and Stratigraphy.
