The Cotroceni Palace is a part of the Cotroceni National Museum which is a specialized institution focused upon reflecting the history of the Medieval and Modern Cotroceni, upon the evolution and transformations that came up in time. The Cotroceni palace, church and monastery reflect a three-century history that interweaves political, military, diplomatic, religious and cultural aspects, directly with the general evolution of Romanian society. By its themes and holdings, the Cotroceni National Museum exhibits a rich range of values belonging to our national art, as well as to Romanian and world decorative art. The Cantacuzinian space seems to be a most suitable place for organizing a presentation of some old art objects that only give an outline of the exceptiobal value of the respective epoch. Among the most remarcable objects exhibited are the richly adorned tombstones, an expression of the admirable art of the stoneworkers and decorators, as well as carvings that prove the vigour of the Cantacuzinian and Brancovenian art and architecture.
