Are the fossils on display in museums replicas?

A friend of mine told me that the fossils on display in museums are plaster replicas because the actual fossils are too fragile. I always thought that the fossilization process turned the bones into rocks. Who is right here?

No, a few are, however most are actual fossils taken from archaeological digs.
