  Rezumat:  The Section of Natural Sciences of the “Museum of Oltenia” in Craiova (Romania) currently includes a collection of 1180 rocks and minerals samples. Due to their dimensions, appearance and rarity or to a combination of more of these qualities, certain specimens are of exquisite value. The first samples in the collection (gold ore, copper, anthracite, limestones a.o.) came from Oltenia – an historical region in the south-western part of Romania. The collection has been further enriched by acquisition, donations and sampling of minerals and rocks from Romania and other countries (Algeria, Poland, Russia). The most valuable sample in the collection is the Sopot meteorite which fell on April 27, 1927 (Demetrescu, 1930) and was described in the first museum guide (Demetrescu and Nicolăescu-Plopşor, 1933). Valuable specimens are represented by mineral samples discovered for the first time on the territory of Romania, such as nagyágite, rhodochrosite, semseyite (Popescu, 2000), and by other minerals or mineral associations showing outstanding shape, dimension and colour.

Key words: minerals and rocks collection, museum, Romania
