Summary/Abstract: For Calistrat Hogaș, travel meant life itself, because he loved long roads, in mountainous areas, with many adventures and full of the charm of the views. His work, a real travel diary, reveals the writer's intention to bring something different in Romanian literature.In this article we intend to present a batch of 8 medals from the memorial collection of the Memorial Museum „Calistrat Hogaș” Piatra-Neamț. The medals belonged to the writer's family and were sold to the County Museum of History by the writer's daughter, Sidonia Hogaș, in 1968. These medals are of several types and are presented in chronological order.
