Un Cicerone contemporan
Secolul trecut a fost cel n care a devenit evident c omenirea se afl ntr-o criz a administrrii informaiilor. Chiar i manualele dedicate gestionrii informaiilor au devenit prea numeroase pentru a mai putea fi uor reinute. Traversm o perioad de suprasaturare cu informaii. La ce bun, atunci, o nou carte care s adune, laolalt, date sintetice despre un domeniu anume n acest caz, al muzeelor? Pe de o parte, rspunsul st ntr-o fireasc dorin de cunoatere exhaustiv i enciclopedic a realitii. Pe de alt parte, informaia are un ciclu de via din ce n ce mai scurt, ceea ce face ca oamenii s nu mai aib rbdare pentru actualizarea la intervale de timp mai mari de un an. Un ghid al muzeelor (chiar i din Romnia) de acum trei sau patru decenii nu mai poate fi utilizat cu folos astzi, fiind de interes doar pentru istoricii muzeelor. Deocamdat, poate i din raiuni practice, ghidurile anuale rmn populare, poate, nu doar din obinuin. Pe de alt parte, va veni, probabil, vremea cnd informaia din asemenea ghiduri va avea nevoie de actualizri chiar mai dese. n cazul de fa, Ghidul muzeelor i coleciilor din Romnia reprezint ceva mai mult dect o simpl actualizare a unor date administrate (i inute la zi) pe o pagin de Internet. Este o carte de referin, pentru oricare profesionist al muzeelor, ca i pentru cei care le sunt, pur i simplu, apropiai. Ghidul reprezint un moment de analiz a ceea ce au obinut muzeografii romni, la 17 ani de la rsturnarea regimului comunist. Momentul reprezint, nc, unul care marcheaz nceputul unei noi etape de dezvoltare. Expoziiile permanente nu pot fi schimbate att de uor. Pentru multe muzee din Romnia, problema nnoirii expoziiilor permanente a fost una legat nu doar de eliberarea de barierele ideologice, ci i de posibilitatea alegerii unor maniere de expunere mai apropiate de public (cele audiovizuale, n primul rnd), de posibilitatea utilizrii unor materiale mai performante i de conexarea expoziiilor cu celelalte mijloace de expresie muzeal (prin conferine, lecii etc.). Cel puin primii ase apte ani, dup 1989, au nsemnat ani de acumulri, de studii, de schimburi de experien, de reaezare a ideilor i, totodat, de schimb de generaii. Apoi, de prin 1997, structurile organizaionale ale muzeelor au nceput s se schimbe. Corespunztor, acest lucru a nceput s se vad n activitatea muzeelor i chiar n modul de etalare a expoziiilor temporare i permanente. Acum, la sfritul lui 2006, putem spune c majoritatea muzeelor romneti au atins un grad de maturitate suficient de nalt, nct s ne permit s facem o evaluare: ncotro s-au dezvoltat muzeele din Romnia, ce modele au urmat, ce direcii i propun. Ghidul muzeelor i coleciilor din Romnia ne ofer o oglind destul de exact a situaiei muzeelor din Romnia. Este o oglind cu dou fee: pe de o parte, fiecare muzeu este prezentat cu o scurt fi istoric; pe de alt parte, prezentarea expoziiilor curente poate sugera dezvoltarea viitoare a muzeelor. Despre primul voleu al oglinzii se cunosc, deja, multe lucruri. Ghidul insist nu doar asupra coleciilor, ci i asupra cldirilor. Multe dintre ele sunt monumente istorice sau, n orice caz, cldiri cu valoare istoric. Viitorul, n mod firesc, prezint multe incertitudini i, desigur, nu toate sunt evidente. Muzeele se confrunt cu o dramatic lips de spaiu. Foarte puine sunt cele care au reuit s dobndeasc, dup 1989, spaii mai potrivite pentru funciunile muzeale. Restituirile de proprieti au dus, deja, n unele cazuri, la evacuarea muzeelor, iar alte situaii sunt de nregistrat n scurt vreme. Din pcate, autoritile nu au reuit s pregteasc, n toate cazurile, noi spaii de expunere. Patrimoniul a crescut considerabil, n ultima jumtate de secol, dar suprafeele desfurate ale muzeelor au rmas, cel mai adesea, aceleai. De aici, o lips acut de spaii, mai ales, pentru depozite, laboratoare i activiti cu publicul. Procesul de reorganizare a expoziiilor permanente se afl (raportat la scara ntregii ri) n plin desfurare. Paradoxal, muzeele care au reuit s i schimbe expoziiile n primii doi trei ani, dup 1989, se gsesc, acum, n faa aceleiai probleme ca i muzeele care au rmas cu expoziiile nemodificate: este necesar nlocuirea lor; de data aceasta, nu din motive de uzur moral, ci din cauza expunerii, realizate cu mijloace muzeotehnice foarte modeste i bazate de modaliti de exprimare expoziionale demodate. Pe de alt parte, ceva s-a schimbat fundamental n activitatea muzeelor din Romnia, i acest lucru trebuie spus, cu att mai mult cu ct Ghidul nu are cum s l fac remarcat: muzeele nu au fost niciodat att de aproape de publicul lor, ca acum. Desigur, mai sunt extrem de multe lucruri de fcut, dar este esenial c managerii muzeelor (mai ales, cei din tnra generaie) au neles c, dac vor s aib succes n activitatea lor, sunt obligai s se dedice mai mult publicului i acest lucru se va reflecta, mai devreme sau mai trziu, n felul n care sunt percepute instituiile muzeale i colectivele manageriale ale acestora, att de ctre autoriti i pres (din ce n ce mai important, ca factor de formare a opiniei publice), ct i de ctre public, n sensul restrns al termenului. Bineneles, n spatele acestei schimbri stau mari acumulri n direcia schimbrii, adesea, invizibile pentru public: muzeele s-au dotat cu mijloace tehnice moderne (mai ales, n domeniul tehnologiei informaionale), i-au trimis specialitii la programe de pregtire profesional n ar i n strintate, au angajat personal n specialiti noi (marketing, web design, relaii cu presa etc.), au legat relaii stabile de colaborare cu muzee din strintate (att din rile
vecine, ct i din Vestul Europei), i-au dezvoltat bazele de date, au mbuntit condiiile de conservare a patrimoniului .a.m.d.. Aderarea Romniei la Uniunea European va grbi, cu siguran, acest proces de schimbare. Tocmai de aceea, este de dorit ca Ghidul de fa s vad o nou ediie, la un an dup aderare, nregistrnd schimbrile fa de situaia actual. Din aceast perspectiv, Ciceronele muzeelor romneti trebuie s rmn la fel de atent la rapidul proces de nnoire muzeal, atrgnd atenia asupra formelor recente de exprimare expoziional i a celor stabile de comunicare cu publicul, prin activiti educaionale. Cu alte cuvinte, un Cicerone nelinitit de misiunea pe care o are i de importana cultural deosebit a demersului su. Preedintele Comitetului Naional ICOM Dr. Virgil tefan Niulescu
A Contemporary Cicerone
In the last century it became only clear the fact that humanity is hardly able to manage all information. Even the number of information management guides baffles our retentive memory. We are overwhelmed by data of all kinds. What is the good of a new comprehensive book on another domain - in our case, the museum world? On the one hand, the answer rests on a natural desire for knowing reality in an exhaustive, all-encompassing way. On the other hand, the information is more and more short-lived, entailing a yearlong validity for any given information by most standards. A guide to the museums (be they even Romanian) dating to three or four decades ago can be of no use now, as it seems relevant only to museum historians. For the time being, maybe out of practical reasons, the annual guides remain popular, and that might not come only from routine. On the other hand, updating could become necessary even more often. In the present case, the Guide to the Museums and Collections in Romania is more than a mere updating of data managed (and updated) on an Internet page. It is a reference book, for any museum professional, and for those keen on museums. The Guide is a landmark for the achievements of the Romanian curators, seventeen years after the upheaval that put an end to the communist regime. This landmark is also symbolic for a new development stage. The permanent exhibitions cannot be changed that easily. For many museums in Romania, the issue of renewing the permanent exhibitions relates not only to the emancipation from ideological constraints, but also an opportunity to choose friendlier display designs (first of all, audiovisual ones), a possibility to use more efficient material and to connect the exhibitions to the other means of presentation (conferences, lectures, etc.). At least for six, seven years after 1989, we gathered information and undertook studies; we exchanged experience, reconsidered out ideas and let the new generation settle in. Then, since 1997, the organisational structures of the museums have undergone changes. Those have become apparent in the activity of the museums and even in the display of the temporary and permanent exhibitions. Currently, at the end of 2006, we can say that most Romanian museums are mature enough to allow an evaluation: the development pattern the Romanian museums adopted, and followed, and their trends. The Guide to the Museums and Collections in Romania mirrors the situation of the Romanian museums. We can look both ways: on the one hand, each museum is presented in a short "historical" file; on the other hand, the presentation of the current exhibitions might suggest the subsequent development of the museums. The first image in the "mirror" takes shape in front of our eyes. The Guide emphasises both the collections and the buildings. Most of them are historic monuments or, at any rate, historic buildings. Naturally, the future has in store many uncertainties, and, surely, not all are obvious. The museums face dramatic space shortage. After 1989, very few of them succeeded in obtaining adequate premises for museum activities. The property retrocessions have already led to some of the museums being evacuated, and there is more to come. Unfortunately, the authorities failed to establish new locations for all the museums. The heritage grew considerably over the last fifty years, but the museum room stayed the same in most cases. Hence, an acute space shortage, especially for storerooms, laboratories, and public relations. The permanent exhibition reorganisation process is under way (across the country). Paradoxically, the museums that succeeded to change their exhibitions during the first two or three years, after 1989, are now facing the same problems as the museums that have their exhibitions unchanged: it is necessary to replace them; this time, not because they are obsolete, but because the display carried out by very modest museum technology means, following old fashioned exhibition outlooks. On the other hand, something has fundamentally changed in the activity of the Romanian museums, and that should be emphasised, so much more as the Guide cannot reveal it: the museums have never been as close to their public as now. Of course, there are still very many things to do, but it is crucial for the museum managers (especially the young ones) to understand that, if they want to succeed in their activity,
Ghidul muzeelor i coleciilor din Romnia 7 www.cimec.ro
they are obliged to dedicate themselves more to the public - and that will sooner or later reflect in the way the museum institutions and their managerial staff are perceived, both by the authorities and the press (an important factor for public opinion), and by the public, in the narrow sense. Of course, this change reflects the steps towards the change, that the public cannot see: the museums are endowed with modern technical means (especially information technology tools), sent their specialists to training programmes in this country and abroad, employed personnel for "new" jobs (marketing, web design, press relations, etc.), established stable relations with foreign museums (both from neighbouring countries and from Western Europe), developed the databases, improved the heritage conservation conditions, a.s.o. Romania's EU accession will certainly speed up the changing process. That is why the present Guide should have a new edition, a year after the accession, so that the possible changes should be put down. Considering that, the Cicerone of the Romanian museums should keep up the museum renewal process, emphasise the recent display patterns, and boost communication with the public by educational activities. In other words, a Cicerone in "turmoil" due to its mission and to its outstanding cultural importance. Dr. Virgil tefan Niulescu President of the ICOM National Committee
Introducere
Ghidul de fa ofer informaii despre 740 de muzee i colecii de interes public din Romnia, aflate n 410 localiti: muzee, secii muzeale, muzee n aer liber, case memoriale, colecii steti, muzee bisericeti, expoziii permanente i galerii de art, parcuri arheologice, grdini zoologice i botanice, peteri amenajate pentru vizitare. Ghidul este organizat pe regiuni istorice, pe judee i pe localiti, n ordine alfabetic, ncepnd cu Bucureti, capitala rii i oraul cu cele mai multe muzee (peste 57). Ne-am gndit c n acest fel mbinm cel mai bine perspectiva geografic i sugestia unor trasee turistice i culturale regionale cu nevoia unei organizri clare, n care cititorul s identifice ct mai uor zona i muzeele care l intereseaz. Cuprinsul amnunit al ghidului ine loc i de indice geografic. Fiecare regiune este precedat de o hart care marcheaz localitile n care exist muzee i colecii. Regiunea, la rndul ei, este identificat pe harta rii ntr-un medalion. Pentru Bucureti dm att imaginea general a planului oraului ct i un detaliu al zonei centrale, unde se gsesc cele mai multe muzee. Pentru detalii geografice putei consulta harta on-line a Romniei realizat la CIMEC (http://map.cimec.ro), pe care putei selecta diverse teme de patrimoniu cultural (muzee i colecii, situri arheologice, lcauri de cult etc.), putei naviga i detalia zona de interes (deocamdat pn la scara 1:100.000 i fr hri de orae). Harta digital este legat direct cu bazele noastre de date, de unde putei afla informaii la zi despre obiectivele dintr-o localitate sau alta. Fa de ediia precedent a ghidului, publicat n anul 2000, volumul de fa este mai bogat att cantitativ (740 de instituii repertoriate fa de 690, cu toate c nu apar cele peste 60 de muzee desfiinate n aceast perioad), ct mai ales calitativ. Cea mai mare parte a informaiilor a fost actualizat i mbogit, adugndu-se, ca noutate, adresele de contact prin e-mail (peste 200) i adresele siturilor web ale muzeelor sau ale paginilor web n care acestea sunt prezentate de ctre ali parteneri (peste 230 de adrese). De asemenea, sunt semnalate muzeele care dein bunuri culturale clasate n Tezaurul patrimoniului cultural naional pn la data finalizrii textului pentru ghid. Pentru fiecare obiectiv gsii adrese complete, inclusiv adresa de coresponden, numere de telefon i fax, adrese e-mail i de situri web, program de vizitare, data nfiinrii, subordonare, date despre colecii i exponate deosebite, istoria instituiilor i a cldirilor care le adpostesc. Pentru echilibrul lucrrii i din cauza restriciilor de spaiu, unele descrieri de colecii au fost reduse, chiar dac n versiunea on-line acestea sunt mai ample. O alt noutate este traducerea n limba englez a denumirilor i descrierii muzeelor i coleciilor, ceea ce face ghidul accesibil i celor care nu cunosc limba romn. Din economie de spaiu, nu am mai tradus i adresa sau programul de vizitare, acestea fiind informaii uor de neles i de ctre strini. Datele provin din baza naional de date realizat i ntreinut la CIMEC Institutul de Memorie Cultural ncepnd din anul 1993, cu sprijinul financiar al Ministerului Culturii i Cultelor. Baza de date, accesibil i ntr-o versiune on-line permanent actualizat (www.cimec.ro), a pornit de la datele existente la CIMEC i la Ministerul Culturii i Cultelor, fiind actualizat, corectat i mbogit de-al lungul anilor pe baza rspunsurilor la chestionarele trimise la muzee i la direcii judeene pentru cultur, culte i patrimoniul cultural naional, dar i pe baza informaiilor culese din reviste i alte publicaii de specialitate, ca i a celor obinute de noi direct prin zeci de telefoane, e-mailuri sau contacte personale cu cei care lucreaz n aceste instituii. Prin eforturile noastre constante i cu sprijinul colegilor din muzee s-a constituit astfel cea
mai complet i la zi surs de informaii privind instituiile muzeale din Romnia. Aceasta nu nseamn c realitatea dinamic pe care o trim nu ne joac feste: cu toat dorina noastr de a avea date exhaustive i corecte, nu aflm ntotdeauna la vreme despre nfiinarea sau desfiinarea unor muzee, despre schimbarea adreselor sau a numerelor de telefon, despre modificri n programul de vizitare i aa mai departe. Vei gsi n acest ghid datele pe care le-am avut la dispoziie pn la 1 septembrie 2006. Ne cerem scuze fa de toi cei care se vor simi ofensai c nu i-am menionat, dup cum ne cerem scuze pentru eventualele neconcordane involuntare cu realitatea, spernd ca acestea s fie ct mai puine. Baza de date on-line va fi permanent actualizat pe msur ce ne vei trimite observaii, corecii i date suplimentare. Mulumim tuturor instituiilor muzeale i colegilor care ne-au trimis informaii i imagini pentru baza naional de date. Ghidul va fi, sperm, un instrument util pentru toi amatorii de mrturii ale trecutului, de lucruri frumoase i interesante, de cltorii, de planificat vizite i excursii. Muzeele i coleciile, mari sau mici, v ateapt s le descoperii. Irina Oberlnder-Trnoveanu Director adjunct al CIMEC Bucureti, noiembrie 2006
Introduction
This guide provides information on 740 public museums and collections located in 410 Romanian localities: museums, museum departments, open air museums, memorial houses, village collections, church museums, permanent exhibitions and art galleries, archaeological parks, zoological and botanic gardens, and tourist caves. The structure of the guide follows the historical regions, counties, and localities, in alphabetical order, starting with Bucharest, the capital of this country, and the city with the highest number of museums (57). We thought that in this way we make the best of the geographical perspective, while suggesting cultural regions and tourist attractions to readers searching for a clear organised view upon the museums and their locations. The detailed contents of the guide can serve also as a geographical index. A map marking the localities with museums and collections precedes each region. In its turn, the region is identified on the map of the country in a medallion. For Bucharest, we give both the general image of the city plan and a detail of the central area, where most museums can be found. For geographical details you can look into the on-line digital map of Romania made at CIMEC (http://map.cimec.ro), on which you can select various cultural heritage themes (museums and collections, archaeological sites, places of worship, etc.), navigate and zoom in the relevant area (for the time being at the scale 1:100,000, and no city maps). The digital map is directly linked to our databases, where you can find updated information on the sites in a locality or another. As compared with the previous edition of the guide, published in 2000, the present volume is richer quantitatively (740 recorded institutions as compared with 690, without taking into consideration the over 60 museums that ceased to exist during that period), and above all qualitatively. Most data have been updated and enriched, and completed with the contact e-mail (over 200) and web site addresses of the museums or of the web pages where other partners present these (over 230 addresses). Meanwhile, we point to the museums that hold property listed in the National Cultural Heritage Treasure until the date we completed the text of the guide. Each site is provided with full addresses, including the mail address, telephone and fax numbers, e-mail and web site addresses, opening hours, foundation date, subordination, data on special collections and exhibits, the history of the institutions and the buildings sheltering them. For reasons of fair balance and space saving, we shortened some collection descriptions even if in the on-line version they are kept longer. Another novelty is the translation into the English language of the names and descriptions of the museums and collections, which makes the guide accessible also to those who do not know the Romanian language. We did not translate the addresses and opening hours, as foreigners can easily understand these data in Romanian. The text comes from the national database carried out and maintained by CIMEC - the Institute for Cultural Memory since 1993, with the financial support of the Ministry of Culture and Religious Affairs. The database, accessible in a permanently updated on-line version (www.cimec.ro), started from the data available at CIMEC and at the Ministry of Culture and Religious Affairs. Over the years, we have updated, corrected, and enriched the content by considering the answers to the questionnaires we sent to museums and county authorities for culture, religions, and the national cultural heritage. We also gathered data from reviews and other relevant publications, and directly
Ghidul muzeelor i coleciilor din Romnia 9 www.cimec.ro
contacted institutions and authorities through tens of telephone calls, e-mails or personal contacts with people who work in these institutions. Thus, due to our constant endeavours, and the kind support of our colleagues, we could build up the most complex updated information source on the museum institutions in Romania. That does not mean that the dynamic reality we are living in fails to play tricks on us: in spite of our desire for exhaustive accurate data, we do not always learn on time about the founding or the dismantling of certain museums, about the change in the addresses or telephone numbers, about the changes in the opening hours, and others. The guide will provide you with data available to us up to the 1st of September 2006. We apologise to all those who might feel offended for not having been mentioned. We also apologise for the possible accidental inconsistencies, few as they might be. The on-line database will be updated on a permanent basis, as you are going to send us observations, corrections, and further data. Acknowledgements are due to all the museum institutions and colleagues who sent us information and pictures for the national database. We hope that the guide will prove a useful tool for all those who are keen on testimonies of the past, on beautiful and interesting things, travel, visit, and trip planning. The large or small museums and collections are waiting for you to discover them. Irina Oberlnder-Trnoveanu Deputy Director of CIMEC Bucharest, November 2006

By the middle of the 16th century, Prince Mircea Ciobanul employed craftsmen to rebuild the princely court on its old foundations. Burned by the Turks during the battles of 1595, the princely residence was entirely rebuilt by Matei Basarab. Upon his accession to the throne of Wallachia, Prince Constantine Brncovan built the princely mansion, named "the Large", masonry rooms for the princely guards, as well as the princely bath. The main entrance gate was fitted with a watch tower. The elegant palace impressed many foreigners arrived at the court. Damaged by fire, destroyed by earthquakes, left in ruin following the Austrian-Russian-Turkish war from 1768 - 1774, this princely residence was no longer inhabitable. Thus, Alexander Ipsilanti had to build a new princely court in Dealul Spirii - the New Court, in 1775. After it was built, the buildings of the previous residence, found in ruin, became known under the name of the Old Court. Lately the archaeologists had uncovered many evidence on the Old Court.

The National Museum of Art of Romania has three art galleries and a royal history. The European Art Gallery, Romanian Old Art Gallery, Romanian Modern Art Gallery sum up works displayed in an attractive modern manner, and any visit is a pleasant, interesting way to spend time. The history borne by the building makes the visit a travel in time, as on the place where the Kretzulescu wings stands today, the boyar Dinicu Golescu raised, between 1812 and 1820, a house of impressive size for the contemporaries. During the time of Alexandru Ioan Cuza the building turned into a princely lodging, and during the time of Charles I, a winter palace. The king adorned it after his taste and was also involved with developing a painting collection, today the core of the European Art Gallery. The palace underwent a stage of modifications
26
during the time of Ferdinand and Charles II, and its changed in 1948, when it was decided to open here a museum of art and the reception halls of the central body were assigned to the State Council. During the events of December 1989, eighty per cent of the building was damaged, and over 1,000 works of art were deteriorated or destroyed. In 1990 the building in Revolution Square turned into the National Museum of Art of Romania. The European Art Gallery, sheltered in the Kretzulescu wing, reflects, due to the distribution of the 300 works, the main art schools of Europe between the 14th and 19th centuries. From the late Gothic and the Renaissance, continuing with Mannerism and Caravagism, up to the Baroque and Rococo patterns, Italian painting is represented by works of the masters Domenico Veneziano, Jacopo Bassano, Bronzino, Jacopo Tintoretto, Luca Giordano, Orazio Gentileschi, Jacopo Amigoni. The German art collection illustrates the German version of the international Gothic or the north Renaissance pattern due to remarkable works by Bartholomus Zeitblom, Lucas Cranach the Elder and Hans von Aachen. Religious fervour and burning temperament characterize the Spanish paintings by El Greco, Francisco Zurbarn, Alonso Cano, Antonio Pereda. Realism, the mystery of the light and shade or the epic picturesque of the scenes can be found in the works of Flemish artists (Bartholomus Spranger, Pieter Brueghel the Younger, Pieter Paul Rubens, David Ryckaert III) and Dutch artists (Rembrandt Harmensz, Van Rijn, Jan Davidsz, De Heem). The French art halls are spanned by works from the 16th - 19th centuries. Important artists include: J.B. Oudry, Nicolas de Largillire, Gaspar Dughet, Joseph Parrocel, next to Claude Monet, Paul Signac, Alfred Sisley. The sculpture collection includes remarkable creations by Auguste Rodin, Antoine Bourdelle, Jules Dalou and Camille Claudel. The Romanian Old Art Gallery includes 900 pieces offering a unitary image upon the cultural life in the historical provinces: Wallachia, Moldavia and Transylvania from the 14th 18th centuries. Remarkable are the fresco fragments (those from Curtea de Arge [Arge Court] - 1526) and the icons (Wailing the Lord) - the 15th 16th centuries, Saints Simeon and Sava - 1522 - 1523, both from the monastery of Curtea de Arges, the Virgin with Child surrounded by prophets - the second half of the 16th century, Pngrai monastery), embroideries (Epitaphs of Cozia Monastery 1395 -1396 and of Neam Monastery - 1437, the Air of "St. Nicholas of Rdui" Church about 1493, the Stoles of Tismana Monastery early 16th century), manuscripts (the Four Gospels, achieved in a Byzantine workshop, whose text dates from the 12th century, the Four Gospels of Gavril Uric - 1436 - 1437, the Four Gospels of monk Dimitrie Gramaticul - 1512), gold and silver items (the censer from Tismana - 1508 1512, the shrine from Hurezi - 1691 -1692, the precious metal vessel with artistic incrustations from Precista Monastery in Bacu 1491 - 1496, the procession cross from Slatina Monastery - 1558), wooden and stone sculptures (the imperial doors from the church in Crligul (Bacu) - early 16th century, the rib with the coats of arms of Moldavia from "Three Hierachs" in Jassy, 1637 - 1638). The gallery includes a Treasure to which three halls are dedicated, where one can see secular and religious items out of precious metals and stones, jewels and costume accessories from the 14th - 19th centuries. The Romanian Modern Art Gallery reconstructs, due to the 700 paintings and sculptures, the path of Romanian art from early 19th century - illustrated by the departure from the religious art of Byzantine inspiration - to the age of the great classics of Romanian art. The two centuries of art, revealed by numerous artistic trends and tendencies, are represented both by famous names, relevant for the entire Romanian culture, and by less known outstanding artists included for the first time in the permanent exhibition of the National Gallery. The tradition of portraits and the formalism of the "painters of thin" are illustrated

in the Gallery by the works of Anton Chladek, Giovanni Schiavoni, Iosef August Schoefft, while Theodor Aman' and Gheorghe Tattarescu's paintings show how these two artists gave Romanian painting a new interpretation of academicism and neoclassicism. Outstanding personalities of national art like Nicolae Grigorescu, Ioan Andreescu, tefan Luchian, Nicolae Tonitza, Theodor Pallady, Gheorghe Petracu, Constantin Brncui, Dimitrie Paciurea, Corneliu Baba, Alexandru Ciucurencu, Ion uculescu, many other artists complete the general configuration of the represented period, including: Iosif Iser, Camil Ressu, Francisc Sirato, tefan Dumitrescu, Ion Jalea, Jean Al. Steriadi, Nicolae Drscu, Samuel Mtzner, Petre Iorgulescu Yor, Dimitrie Ghea, Rudolf Schweitzer-Cumpna, Lucian Grigorescu, etc. The constant tendency of Romanian culture to intertwine with European trends is revealed in the Romanian modern art exhibition by the vanguard works of Victor Brauner, Marcel Iancu, Hans Mattis-Teutsch, M. H. Maxy, Arthur Segal. One of the halls of the gallery is dedicated exclusively to the sculptor Constantin Brncui and gathers youth and maturity works, such as: Ordeal, Child's Head, Sleep, Prometheus, Prayer, Danaid, Silence of the Earth.

Zambaccian, Anastase Simu, Dr. Dona, selecia de lucrri din donaia Vasile Grigore conine lucrri de pictur, sculptur i grafic romneasc interbelic (Theodor Pallady, Gheorghe Petracu, Iosif Iser, Nicolae Tonitza) i contemporan (Alexandru Ciucurencu, Comeliu Baba, Gheorghe Vntoru, Ion Musceleanu, Lucian Grigorescu, Constantin Blendea, Henry Catargi, Ion Popescu Negreni, Ion Irimescu, Mihai Buculei, Vladimir Predescu, Traian Bradean, Jean AI. Steriadi). Dragostea pentru arta popular romneasc a maestrului i pasiunea de a aduna obiecte autentice au dus n final la alctuirea unei colecii etnografice deosebite, la care au contribuit diferite genuri de art: icoane pe lemn i pe sticl, ceramic, obiecte de cult i scoare care ntregesc ansamblul slii. Spaiile de expunere sunt pe dou nivele, piesele sunt dispuse n cele cinci sli, reprezentnd apte seciuni mari (pictur, grafic, sculptur, art popular romneasc i art decorativ european, oriental i extrem-oriental). Spaiile de expunere comunic ntre ele printr-o scar interioar, pe al crui palier, o serie de exponate introduc vizitatorul n tematica slilor n care va pi. Legtura cu arta universal este discret i ntotdeauna vzut din perspectiva artei romneti. n selecia de stampe japoneze, ntre care se numr artiti celebri ca Hiroshige, Utamaro, Kunisada, se poate observa puterea revelatoare a liniei, ca n cazul graficii romneti.

kinds of art: wooden and glass icons, pottery, religious objects and, last but not least, rugs completing the ensamble of the hall. The link with world art is discrete and always seen through the perspective of Romanian art. The selection of Japanese prints, including famous artists such as Hiroshige, Utamaro, Kunisada, reflects the strong power of lines, like in Romanian graphics. The porcelain pieces, painted by hand or printed, from Japan or China, impress by their bright colours and sophistication of the surfaces of the pieces. The Delft English pottery, the German, Russian or French faience are a few of the types of the collection. The domestic artefacts also include engraved, hammered, stamped or perforated metal pieces. Harmoniously coloured, the Oriental prayer carpets suggest a historical reality in almost all the museum halls. Inlaid, intarsiated or painted, the pieces of furniture reveal the great craftsmanship and sensitivity of French, Dutch or Japanese cabinet-makers. Ideea nfiinrii i-a aparinut profesorului Dimitrie Gusti, dup 10 ani de cercetri i achiziii pe teren. Planurile de amplasament iniiale au fost executate de Victor Ion Popa. Pentru organizarea Muzeului Satului Romnesc (aceasta a fost titulatur iniial a instituiei), edilii Bucuretilor, convini de prof. D. Gusti, au atribuit un teren de 4,5 ha situat ntre os. Kiseleff i lacul Herstru. Sarcina construciei lui a fost ncredinat lui H.H. Stahl i lui Victor Ion Popa. n 10 mai 1936 se desfoar inaugurarea oficial a muzeului, odat cu ntreg Parcul Herstru i cu deschiderea pavilioanelor expoziionale din cadrul "Lunii Bucuretilor". n perioada 1948 1978, conducerea muzeului a fost asigurat de prof. Gh. Foca. Muzeul Satului este un muzeu etnografic n aer liber, care adpostete monumente de arhitectur tradiional: gospodrii, biserici, instalaii rneti, ateliere meteugreti (290 de construcii).

Gheorghe Foca), Gospodria "Berbeti", 1775, Gospodria "Ieud", 1890 i Biserica "Dragomireti", 1722, toate din Maramure; Gospodria "Slciua de Jos" din Alba, 1815; Biserica "Rpciuni", 1773, Casa monocelular "Zpodeni"; Pres de ulei de la Gura Rului din judeul Sibiu. Deine bunuri culturale clasate n Tezaurul patrimoniului cultural naional. Professor Dimitrie Gusti, after ten years of researches and ground acquisitions, had the idea to found the museum. The initial sitting designs were executed by Victor Ion Popa. Between 1948 and 1978 the museum was managed by professor Gh. Foca.

to 1875 when, upon Titu Maiorescu's proposal, under the National Antiquities Museum, the first textile art department emerged, with "things made in the countryside: clothes, carpets, cloth, etc.", of which the treasure-collections of the museum have preserved several exhibits to this day. Spiru Haret had the idea of founding such a museum, that was established on the 1st of October 1906 as an autonomous folk art museum: the Museum of Ethnography, National Art, Decorative and Industrial Art located in the building of the former Treasury. The outstanding art historian Alexandru Tzigara-Samurca was appointed director. He conferred a prestigious scientific and cultural status to the institution, and changed its name first to the Museum of Ethnography and National Art, and in 1912 to the Museum of National Art. In 1931 the folk art exhibition was inaugurated. In 1953 it moved to the tirbei Palace building, in Calea Victoriei, where it functioned for 25 years, under the name of the Museum of Folk Art of the Republic, under the leadership of Tancred Bneanu, a remarkable ethnographer. In 1978 it merged with the Village Museum under the name of the Village and Folk Art Museum. In 1990 the museum, bearing the current name, returned to the former premises at the highway. The building, listed as a monument of architecture, sheltering the Romanian Peasant Museum, was built by the architect Nicolae Ghika-Budeti, a brilliant representative of the Romanian architecture school. The museum presents costumes, pottery, furniture, wooden and glass icons, xylographs, religious items, fabrics, carpets, tools, as well as an important collection of foreign folk art, emerged due to the endeavours of the ethnographer Tancred Bneanu. All the collections include about 90,000 items. After 1990 six wooden churches from the Arad and Hunedoara counties were acquired, four of them conserved "in situ", and two, in the museum precinct. The museum manages also the exhibition opened in the precinct of the stone House from Hereti. The museum owns goods listed in the National Cultural Heritage Treasure.

Muzeul a fost nfiinat la 10 iulie 1991 i deschis pentru vizitatori n decembrie 1991, ambiana integrnd istoria a dou monumente succesive n timp - Mnstirea Cotroceni i Palatul Regal. Mnstirea Cotroceni, ctitorit de erban Cantacuzino (1678 - 1688), a fost demolat n 1984. Palatul Cotroceni a fost destinat s reprezinte reedina principilor motenitori ai Regatului Romniei, Ferdinand i Maria. Aici s-au desfurat evenimente politice decisive pentru soarta Romniei: Consiliul de Coroan (14/17 august 1916) care a decis participarea Romniei la primul rzboi mondial; aici au fost primii, n decembrie 1918, delegaii din Transilvania, Bucovina i Basarabia care i-au exprimat adeziunea la Unire; s-a semnat pacea de la Buftea-Bucureti n mai 1918; Consiliul de Coroan din septembrie 1939, au fost primite personaliti romneti i strine. Palatul Cotroceni a fost construit ntre 1893 - 1895 de arh. francez Paul Gottreau. Palatul a fost extins n secolul al XX-lea, n cteva rnduri, cele mai importante refaceri fiind realizate n perioadele 1900 - 1910 i 1915 - 1925; pentru a veni n ntmpinarea cerinelor reginei Maria, cteva interioare au fost schimbate, arhitectul Grigore Cerchez promovnd stilul neo-romnesc. ntre 1971 - 1986, palatul a suportat o ampl aciune de refacere, cnd spaii importante au fost restaurate conform martorilor de epoc, n timp ce alte interioare au fost reamenajate n spiritul reedinelor princiare europene din secolul al XIX-lea. Rezultatul l-a constituit diversitatea stilistic a decoraiei de interior. Cele mai reprezentative spaii astfel configurate sunt: Holul de onoare, Marele salon de recepie, Apartamentul n stil Neorenatere german, Henric al II-lea, Louis al XV-lea, Louis al XVI-lea, Rococo, Empire, Biedermeier, Art Nouveau. Sunt expuse piese de art decorativ brncoveneasc i post-brncoveneasc, n spaii medievale. Menionm: cuhnia, trapeza, chilii, pivniele caselor domneti (secolul al XVII-lea), ancadramentul uii bisericii. Este vizibil reedina princiar de la Cotroceni cu piese originale: mobilier aparinnd familiei regale, textile de interior, tablouri. De asemenea, pot fi vzute pietrele tombale ale Cantacuzinilor, obiecte de podoab i funerare, monede, costumul Smarandei Cantacuzino. Muzeul cuprinde i un important fond de carte. The museum was established on the 10th of July 1991 and opened for visitors in December 1991. It integrates the history of two successive monuments - Cotroceni Monastery and the Royal Palace. Cotroceni Monastery, built by erban Cantacuzino (1678 - 1688), was demolished in 1984. Cotroceni Palace was meant to represent the residence of the Crown Prince and Princess of the Kingdom of Romania, Ferdinand and Mary. Here took place crucial political events of Romania: the Crown Council (14/17 August 1916) that decided Romania's participation in World War I; in December 1918 here were received the delegates from Transylvania, Bukovina and Bessarabia who voiced their willingness to unite with Romania; in May 1918 here was signed the peace of Buftea-Bucharest; the Crown Council took place here in September 1939; Romanian and foreign personalities were received here. Cotroceni Palace was built between 1893 and 1895 by French architect Paul Gottreau. The palace was extended in the 20th century more times - mostly from 1900 to 1910 and from 1915 to 1925; in order to meet the demands of Queen Mary, several interiors were changed by architect Grigore Cerchez, who used the Neo-Romanian style. Between
1971 and 1986, the palace underwent a vast restoration, as large spaces were restored according to witnesses from the beginning of the century, while other interiors were refurbished following the pattern of the European princely residences from the 19th century. It all resulted in a variety of styles of the interior decoration. The most representative rooms are: the Hall of Honour, the Great Reception Salon, the apartment in a German NeoRenaissance style, as well as the Henry II, Louis Quinze, Louis Seize, Rococo, Empire, Biedermeier and Art Nouveau apartments. The exhibits include Brancovan and post-Brancovan decorative art items in a mediaeval environment: the kitchen, the refectory, cells, the princely cellars (the 17th century), the church door frame. One can see the princely residence of Cotroceni comprising original items: furniture belonging to the royal family, interior textiles, paintings. At the same time, one can see tomb stones of the Cantacuzino family, ornaments, funerary objects, coins, Smaranda Cantacuzino's costume. The museum also includes an important book collection.

The museum is organized as a true geology manual open both to specialists and for those who know less about geology. It is destined to those who take a look into the interesting world of crystals, coloured or fluorescent minerals, rocks and fossils, wishing they could have a real understanding of the Earth, its composition, origin and history (the oldest rocks date back to 1,900,000,000 years ago). The minerals and fossils described for the first time in Romania, the reconstruction of livestock that populated the Romanian territory in the geological past (reptiles, birds, hominids) next to real size dinosaurs are a few of the visitor attractions. The museum owns goods listed in the National Cultural Heritage Treasure. n anul 2001 Guvernul Romniei a decis nfiinarea Muzeului Naional de Art Contemporan (MNAC) n aripa E4 a Palatului Parlamentului, ce va fi integral renovat. Muzeul a fost constituit prin fuziunea dintre Oficiul Naional pentru Documentare i Expoziii de Art (ODEA) i Departamentul de Art Contemporan, din cadrul Muzeului Naional de Art al Romniei, a crui activitate a ncetat n anul 2001. n octombrie 2004 noul sediu al MNAC a fost deschis publicului n aripa E4 a Palatului Parlamentului. Potrivit declaraiei lui Mihai Oroveanu, directorul muzeului, MNAC opteaz pentru "o formul de expunere novatoare, aceea de "museum in progress", o instituie care s nu se mrgineasc s arhiveze i s gestioneze pasiv i complezent o colecie, ci care s propun proiecte stimulative, s imagineze noi juxtapuneri, noi corespondene, s participe la o aciune de sintez a artelor contemporane, din care s nu lipseasc filmul, muzica, literatura, dansul". In the year 2001 the Romanian Government decided to found the National Museum of Contemporary Art (NMCA) in the wing E4 of the Palace of Parliament, that will be entirely restored. The museum was established following the merger between the National Office for Documentation and Art Exhibitions (NODAE) and the Department of Contemporary Art that belongs to the National Art Museum of Romania, that ceased the activity in the year 2001. According to Mihai Oroveanu's statement, as the manager of the museum, the NMCA chose "a new display formula, that is a museum in progress, an institution that does not confine itself to achieving and managing collections passively and self indulgingly. It is an institution that puts forward challenging projects, figures out new ways of intermingling, and harmonizing, while taking part in an action encompassing the contemporary arts, that should involve film, music, literature and dancing". Sunt expuse 667 hri, gravuri, desene, litografii, precum i o serie de obiecte specifice tematicii muzeului. Exponatele sunt dispuse n cele 16 sli ntr-o suit ce respect latura tiinific mbinat n mod armonios cu cea artistic, cutnd s pun n valoare evoluia istoric a realizrilor cartografice pe ntregul mapamond i, mai ales, a celor care se refer la spaiul geografic al rii noastre. Dintre exponatele cele mai de seam se cuvin menionate hrile realizate de marii geografi ai secolului al XVI-lea dup informaiile provenite de la marii geografi i istorici ai antichitii ca: Strabon, Ptolemeu, Herodot i alii.

The remarkable exhibits include pieces of great value such as maps achieved by the great geographers of the 16th century after the information provided by the great geographers and historians of antiquity: Strabo, Ptolemy, Herodotus and others. The great geographers and creators of the Renaissance, a period when maps were produced on a mathematical basis, include S. Mnster whose Cosmography dominated, by numerous editions, the mapping production from the second half of the 16th century. The great geographers G. Mercator and A. Ortelius, the initiators of scientific mapping, are present by their works next to other outstanding geographers of the age. The maps created by them that regard the Eastern European region play a central role. The few exhibits achieved in recent history illustrate, in their turn, certain historical moments.

He established also there a printing house, where in the following three years he issued nine books, including three in Romanian and three in the Slavonic - Romanian bilingual edition. He wrote "Joy Book" (1706), against Catholics and a Liturgy Book (1706), the first Romanian editions in Wallachia. According to the provisions in the will of Metropolitan Teodosie, who had taught believers in Wallachia for 40 years, on the 22nd of February 1708, Bishop Antim was elected metropolitan, in the presence of the patriarchs of Alexandria and Jerusalem. He printed at Trgovite, in a new printing house, 18 books (11 in Romanian), as he introduced the mother tongue in religious activity, achieving what had begun during the time of Matei Basarab (the Pattern) and erban Cantacuzino (biblical texts).

Ideea organizrii unui muzeu filatelic n Romnia dateaz nc din ultimul deceniu al secolului al XIX-lea, cnd au fost ncercri notabile pe plan privat. Timp ndelungat Direcia General a Telegrafelor i Potelor a fcut demersuri pentru nfiinarea unui muzeu potal, dar abia in jurul anului 1891 nfiineaz unul, cnd renumitul arh. Grigore Cerchez, directorul general al Potelor, construiete, n incinta parcului expoziional, din Parcul Carol, un vechi han de pot n care au fost expuse piese de istorie potal i timbre ale acestei Direcii. Existena acestuia a fost ns de scurt durat. n 1958 a existat o tentativ - din pcate, euat - de nfiinare a unui muzeu filatelic. n 2004 s-a acordat titulatura de muzeu de importan naional Muzeului Naional Filatelic. Acesta are sediul n imobilul aflat n administrarea Muzeului Naional de Istorie a Romniei. Cldirea, conceput n stil neoclasic, este realizat dup planurile arh. Al. Svulescu. Pota central a oraului a funcionat aici pn n anul 1970, cnd au nceput lucrrile de renovare a cldirii i de amenajare a Muzeului Naional de Istorie a Romniei. Muzeul Naional Filatelic permite vizitatorilor - n cele trei sli de expunere - s admire o parte din tezaurul Potei Romne. Sala George I.

Se continu prezentarea emisiunilor romneti pn n anul 1962 i pentru perioada 1990 - 2002. Se poate aprecia c majoritatea timbrelor romneti expuse sunt piese unice deoarece sunt prezentate (pn n 1956) sub form de coli nedantelate. Probele de artist (machetele) sunt opere de art n sine, realizri grafice de excepie, deseori semnate de mari artiti. Matriele (clieele) originale cu care au fost imprimate diverse emisiuni se gsesc expuse n vitrinele slii Lahovary.

Deine bunuri culturale clasate n Tezaurul patrimoniului cultural naional. The idea of organizing a stamps museum is not new. It dates from the last ten-year period of the 19th century, when there were some private tries of organizing this kind of museum. The General Department of Telegraph and Postal Services tried hard to establish a Postal Museum, but this was only achieved around 1891. The new museum was presented to the public at the General Exhibition of 1906, when the well-known architect Grigore Cerchez, general manager of the Post at the time, rebuilt an old postal inn on the Exhibition precincts and presented there various items of postal history and the stamps of the General Department of Telegraph and Postal Services. However, the museum was short-life. In 1958, on the occasion of Romanian Postal Mark centenary, the Minister Council emitted a decision of founding a philately museum, decision that unfortunately was not materialized. It 2004 it was decided to give the title of museum of national importance to the National Philately Museum. The year 2004 marks the rebirth of this museum, by the will, determination, decision and
efforts of the friends of philately and of the Post. The inauguration took place on 1st October 2004, during the U.P.U. Congress in Bucharest. The museum is located in a state-owned building, managed by the National History Museum. The location where the National Philately Museum carries on its activity is allotted free of charge. This is a neoclassical building, erected by the design of architect Al. Savulescu. The Central Post Office was located here until 1970, when refurbishment works started and the National History Museum was moved in the building. The National Philately Museum presents part of Romanias Post treasury in the three exhibition halls filled with philatelic and postal items. George I. Lahovary Hall (named in honour of the Romanian representative to the Congress for the constitution of the UPU at Berna in 1874) is entirely dedicated to the Romanian postal stamp. Within a modern system of display one can admire the renowned first issue of Bull Heads, the stamps of 27 and 54 Parale, and also the beautiful stamps of United Principalities and Cuza issues. Of special interest are also the sheets of lithographiated classical issues "Charles I with whiskers and beard", same of which are unique in the world as there are no other known of similar large format. These sheets are already reference items, mentioned in prestigious philatelic works. The presentation of Romanian issues is continued until 1962 and between 1990 and 2002. One can appreciate that most Romanian stamps are unique being presented (until 1956) in unperforated sheets. Artists drawings are in fact creations, exceptional graphics works, signed often by great artists, consecrated names of Romanian graphics. On the presentation cards of the proofs or trial colour, sometimes, mentions leading to changes in the stamp graphics or colour print are visible, next to signatures and cachets. The imperforated sheets, printed after the accepted essays, have the hand made mention "good for printing" next to the signature and cancellation of those entitled to approve the issue (imprimatur). These sheets, as well philatelic items as period documents, are really useful to the research of the Romanian postal stamps, offering important and interesting information (original printing varieties, like those published recently by Mr. Sergiu Gabureac in Filatelia magazine, as elements regarding the composition of the sheets). The genuine dies used to the printing of different issues are shown in the glass cases of Lahovary Hall. One can admire the famous dies of the first issue Bull Head, and also the unissued value, the lithographic stones (absolutely novel items!) used to the printing of classical lithographic stamps and other different dies of engraved or typographed stamps, dies for frames or of value figure dies and so on. Cezar Librecht Hall (first director of the Post of the United Principalities) dedicated to the history of the Romanian Post, exhibits genuine items, copies and dummies all illustrating aspects of the Post evolution of more than 100 years. Clothes of the ancient carters, bugles and postal clothes, a postal desk, postal carriages, trunks for values, different printings etc. The evolution of the philately is presented in Dimitrie C. Butculescu Hall, witch has the name of the first President of the Romanian Philatelic Society. This is the place where philatelic temporary exhibition are organized. By permanent exhibition the medals got by the Romanian Post to the international or national philatelic exhibition and also different publications and philatelic works are exhibited. A special place is dedicated to Filatelia magazine. The museum owns goods listed in the National Cultural Heritage Treasure.

The archaeological site from the Roman period near the village of Jupa has been the most thoroughly excavated in Banat and the best known in the archaeological literature. The overall surface is about 27 hectares. It is known that the ancient locality bore the title of municipium and belonged to the most important cities in the province of Dacia. Tibiscum lay close to the capital of the province Colonia Ulpia Traiana Dacica Sarmizegetusa, and its territory belonged to it. The place where the ancient Tibiscum was raised is known under the name of "Fortress" or "Over the Walls". This complex of ruins includes a camp, a military vicus and the civil settlement, that is the city. C. Mannert identified the ancient ruins preserved close to the locality of Jupa as Tibiscum at the beginning of the 19th century. The first archaeological excavations began in 1875 due to Ortvay Tivadar, on the right bank of the Timi River, uncovering the largest part of the civil settlement. Between 1923 and 1924 Professor G. G. Mateescu, from the University of Cluj, conducted the first systematic excavations at Tibiscum.

Petera Urilor nu primeaz prin dimensiuni, ci prin aglomerare de formaiuni speologice. Din acest punct de vedere este indiscutabil unicat n rndul peterilor amenajate pentru turism. Din lungimea total de 1,5 km o zon de 521 m a fost declarat rezervaie tiinific. Sunt 3 galerii: cea a Urilor, galeria Emil Racovi si Galeria Lumnrilor, precum i 4 sli: Sala Lumnrilor, Sala Spaghetelor, Sala Emil Racovi i Sala Oaselor. Tot aici se gsesc un mare numr de resturi fosile ale ursului de cavern - Ursus Spelaeus - disprut de aproximativ 15.000 de ani. On the 17th of september 1975, when the marble quarry at Chicu was blown up, a break formed in the massif. After scientific researches, a part of the cave was cleared and electrified, and opened for tourists on the 14th of July 1980. Bears Cave is not large, but has many relevant cave structures, which makes it unique. It measures 1.5 km, 521 m being declared a scientific reservation. There are three galleries: the Bear Gallery, Emil Racovi Gallery, and Candle Gallery, as well as four halls: Candle Hall, Spaghetti Hall, Emil Racovi hall and Bone Hall. There are also many fossil remains of the cave bear Ursus Spelaeus extinct about 15,000 years ago. Colecia muzeal cuprinde obiecte de etnografie i istorie local. The museum collection includes local ethnography and history items. Reprezint o peter natural locuit de om, gigantic, cu o intrare semicircular de 16 m nlime, 10 m lime, altitudinea absolut de 397 m i cu alte dou intrri mai mici. Lungimea total este de 4.750 m. Este dispus pe dou etaje, n cea mai mare parte fosile, pe o mic parte activ. Important pentru speogeneza i evoluie carstic este fauna actual i fosil (Ursus spelaeus), resturi de Homo sapiens (probabil din paleolitic i neolitic). n 1972, cu ocazia unor amenajri turistice, au fost descoperite fragmente ceramice neolitice, cultura Tisa i din epoc dacic timpurie. Petera este ocrotit, nchis. Este vizitabil cu ghid, lmpi de miner i echipament special. Urmele arheologice descoperite aparin epocilor: paleolitic, neolitic, La Tne dacic.

part. The present and fossil fauna (Ursus spelaeus), Homo sapiens remains (probably from the Palaeolithic and Neolithic) are important for the speleogenesis and the carstic evolution. In 1972 while the cave was prepared to become a tourist attraction, Neolithic, Tisza culture and early Dacian period pottery fragments were uncovered. The cave is protected, closed. It can be visited with guide, miner's lamps and special equipment.

However, the Romanian Academy and the local authorities took an interest in ancient vestiges only after the Independence War (1877 - 1878) and the integration of Dobrudja in the Romanian state. Remus Opreanu, the first Romanian prefect in Dobrudja, and the school inspector Ion Bnescu gathered vestiges in Constana and from its surroundings and sheltered them in the building of the Prefecture. The small museum fell apart because of a fire in 1882. The rescued monuments were sheltered in the "Pavilion" of the public garden. After many shifts, the National History and Archaeology Museum was completely reorganized in 1977. The museum building was raised in the early 20th century, with a specific Romanian architecture for the local administration. The Constana City Hall gave it to the museum in

Toi au semnat, cu aceast ocazie, n "Cartea de Aur" a Muzeului Regional al Dobrogei, cum s-a numit instituia la vremea respectiv. n timpul primului rzboi mondial, muzeul este distrus n ntregime. Este reorganizat i inaugurat oficial, pentru a doua oar, de aceast dat n locuina personal a directorului colii, la 29 mai 1926, de Regele Ferdinand i Regina Maria. n primii ani ai regimului comunist este desfiinat, piesele arheologice sunt duse la muzeul din Constana, iar coleciile de art, etnografic, geologic, fotografic, sunt mprtiate. Dup 1975 a fost reluat ideea renfiinrii muzeului de la Hrova i pe msur ce au nceput cercetrile, n aezarea neolitic, n anul 1985, n necropolele, aezarea civil ori fortificaiile antice, n anii 1987 - 1989 i mai ales dup 1993, ca urmare a cantitii uriae de materiale arheologice de importan excepional, aceasta a devenit o necesitate imperioas. Pentru reorganizarea muzeului, autoritile locale au pus la dispoziie, n anul 2000, actuala cldire care a fost amenajat. Dup ncheierea lucrrilor, n anul 2005 Ministerul Culturii i Cultelor a avizat funcionarea Muzeului Carsium ca secie a Muzeului de Istorie Naional i Arheologie Constana. La 1 februarie 2006 muzeul este deschis publicului iar la 20 aprilie este inaugurat de Regele Mihai i Regina Ana. Muzeul ilustreaz, prin cele mai reprezentative descoperiri de la Hrova i mprejurimi, dezvoltarea civilizaiei materiale i spirituale din spaiul dunrean, din neolitic pn la nceputul epocii moderne. Sunt expuse piese cu valoare deosebit, unele prezentate n expoziii internaionale sau naionale, tipice culturilor neolitice (Hamangia, Gumelnia), culturii epocii metalelor, dezvoltrii civilizaiei romane, romano-bizantine i medievale la Dunrea de Jos. The museum was established by early 20th century by Professor Vasile Cotovu. The royal family attended and signed in the Golden Book. World War I caused the disorganization of the institution. Vasile Cotovu reorganized it for the second time in 1926 and inaugurated it next to King Ferdinand and Queen Mary. It was dismantled in the first years after World War II. After 1975, the idea of re-establishing the Hrova Museum was vivid again so much more that in 1983 the researches in the Neolithic tell developed here, with exceptional results. Meanwhile, the researches in the ancient cemeteries and at the Carsium fortification led to the discovery of a large amount of archaeological material, some of them unique. In the year 2000 the museum was organised as a department of the Constana Museum of History and Archaeology and moved to the current premises, that was set up until 2005. Carsium Museum illustrates the material and spiritual civilization on the territory of the locality of Hrova, representative for the Danubian space, for the Neolithic (Hamangia, Gumelnia cultures) the metal age; it illustrates aspects of

the Getic material culture, the flourishing of the Roman and Roman-Byzantine provincial civilization at the Lower Danube (1st - 7th centuries); the Dridu culture and the evolution of the locality during the Middle Ages up to the first part of the 19th century.

TULCEA
Institutul de Cercetri Eco-Muzeale Institute for Eco-Museum Researches
Muzeul tulcean a luat natere n anul 1950, prin organizarea Muzeul de tiine ale Naturii. Din anul 1965 a nceput s funcioneze sub denumirea de Muzeul "Delta Dunrii", cu 4 secii: istorie i arheologie, etnografie, tiine ale naturii, art, fiind primul i singurul muzeu tematic din Romnia acceptat la acea vreme, cu denumirea de Muzeul Deltei Dunrii. n timp, muzeul s-a extins prin organizarea altor uniti muzeale. Cea mai important realizare este organizarea n 1975 a Seciei de istorie i arheologie din Parcul "Monumentul Independenei", n interiorul unui prim pavilion, ulterior extins prin construcia celui de-al doilea edificiu. Alte realizri importante se refer la organizarea Muzeului de Art (1972) i a Muzeului de Etnografie i Art Popular (1989). Implicarea instituiei muzeale tulcene n diversificarea unor forme de valorificare a ntregului patrimoniu cultural a dus, n cele din urm, la modificarea structurii organizatorice a vechiului Muzeu al Deltei Dunrii i transformarea lui n Institut de Cercetri Eco-Muzeale. Legiferarea i reorganizarea muzeului tulcean s-au fcut prin deciziile nr. 118, 119/19 martie 1993, Institutul urmnd s-i desfoare activitatea n domeniile: ecologie, etnologie, istoria artelor, istorie i arheologie. n prezent, fiecare obiectiv muzeal al Institutului desfoar activitatea sa proprie prin care ncearc s mbine riguros activitatea tiinific de cercetare, conservare, restaurare, valorificare i mbogire a patrimoniului cultural, cu aciuni care s evidenieze activiti sinergetice cu alte domenii. Noua strategie a instituiei are n vedere faptul c produsul su cultural trebuie dezvoltat ntr-un context de integrare care s implice educaia, turismul, dezvoltarea regional, cooperarea transfrontalier i transnaional, urmrind crearea unor efecte multiplicatoare prin aciuni pluridisciplinare. Tulcea Museum was established in the year 1950 by the foundation of the Natural Sciences Museum. Since 1965 it has been the "Danube Delta" Museum with four departments: history and archaeology, ethnography, natural sciences and art. It is the first and only theme museum in Romania accepted at that time, under the name of Danube Delta Museum. In time the museum has grown due to the emergence of other museum units. The most significant achievement is the 1975 emergence of the History and Archaeology Department in the "Independence Monument" Park, inside an initial pavilion, later extended due to the construction of the second edifice. Other important achievements involve the emergence of the Art Museum (1972) and the Ethnography and Folk Art Museum (1989). The endeavours of the Tulcea Museum institution towards diversifying the forms of valorisation of the entire cultural heritage in the end led to a changed organizational structure of the Old Danube Delta Museum and its turning into an Institute for Eco-Museum Researches. Tulcea Museum was reorganized by the decisions nos. 118, 119/the 19th of March 1993, as the Institute would conduct its activity in the fields: ecology, ethnography, art history, history and archaeology. Currently, each museum of the Institute conducts its own activity trying to rigorously mingle the scientific activity of cultural heritage research, conservation, restoration, valorisation and enriching with actions pointing to synergic domains. The new strategy of the institution considers that its cultural product has to develop in an integration context involving education, tourism, regional development, international cooperation, aiming at creating diverse effects by multidisciplinary actions.

The Art Museum is hosted by a neoclassical building, raised between 1863 and 1865, as an administrative palace of Tulcea Sangeac, called at the time Pasha's Mansion, that underwent changes in time. After Dobrudja reunited with Romania, it became the headquarters of the Tulcea County Prefecture in 1878. On the ground floor there were the County Court of Justice, the quarters of the bailiffs and the Jury Court. Between 1950 and 1970, it functioned as the Tulcea District Council. It became the quarters of the Art Museum on the 23rd of August 1982. The Tulcea Art Museum takes pride in holding a significant heritage that constantly grew over the last ten years, from 4,365 by the end of the year 1991, to 7,015 works currently, so that it owns seven collections, as follows: the modern and contemporary painting collection,
95
counting 932 works; the modern and contemporary sculpture collection, counting 420 works; icon collection from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries, counting 797 works; modern and contemporary graphics collection, counting 4,016 works; engraving plates collection (unique in this country), counting 400 works; the Oriental decorative art collection from the 18th and 20th centuries, counting 311 pieces; the decorative art collection from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries, counting 139 pieces.

The Oriental art exhibition organised in Panaghia House presents pieces belonging to the traditional folk art of the Turks and Tartars in Dobrudja, and pieces belonging to the Oriental art made in manufactures, and later, industrially. The folk art of the Turks and Tartars in Dobrudja (fabrics, embroideries, costumes, ornaments, domestic copper vessels and ceremony vessels) reflect its Oriental origins. Certain traits of this art reveal, however, the intermingling with the art of the local population in the Balkan Peninsula and in Dobrudja. The typically Oriental ornamental motifs: the carnation, cypress, hyacinth, pomegranate fruit, etc. completed by the golden and silver thread mingle in colour and decorative compositions of a special aesthetic value. n centrul localitii Cerna, n vecintatea bisericii satului, atrage atenia o locuin de meteugari de la nceputul secolului al XX-lea.

One can see: agricultural tools, typical Dobrudjan painted carts, fishing tools, cooperage tools and products, as well as smithy, bee keeping and pottery tools, and domestic textile industry. The traditional interior of the house reveals the richness and beauty of the traditional fabrics. The ornamental compositions, stylized depictions and suggestive names of the ornamental motifs of the interior decorative pieces ("little trees", "nut kernel", "girls", "horse and horseman", a.s.o.) emphasize the exquisite artistic values.

Muzeul adpostete o bazilic paleocretin de la sfritul secolului al IV-lea, situat deasupra unor morminte martirice. Are o absid semicircular ieind, naos rectangular mprit n trei nave prin stlpi de sine stttori, care sprijineau, n spaiul vertical al edificiului, un acoperi de lemn n dou ape, nvelit cu olane. Nu avea nartex, n schimb avea pilatri angajai n capetele sudice ale navelor laterale, n scopul susinerii unor arcade transversale i care compartimentau spaiul interior al navelor laterale, de o parte i de cealalt a intrrii n nava central, intrare larg situat pe axul absidei. n zona central a absidei, sub pavimentul altarului, se afl o cript martiric monumental, complet ngropat, care adpostete un grup de patru martiri la partea superioar a martirionului - Zotikos, Attalos, Camasis i Philippos, respectiv doi martiri la nivelul inferior, care provin dintr-un mormnt martiric mai vechi. Martirionul de la Niculiel este un monument unic n Europa. Edificiul de protecie creeaz un spaiu interior elegant, aerat i plcut. Galeria perimetral destinat fluxului de vizitare asigur un permanent contact vizual cu monumentul, iar expoziia permanent de obiecte paleocretine, fotografii color i diapozitive completeaz muzeal vizitarea ntregului ansamblu paleocretin. Descoperirea monumentului s-a datorat unor ploi toreniale care, n primvara anului 1971, au provocat apariia unei poriuni din cupola criptei. Fiind amplasat n pant, ntr-o zon locuit i la intersecia unor ci de acces, monumentul a necesitat o cercetare ndelungat, care s-a desfurat n etape: 1971, 1975, 1985, 1994. The museum houses a paleo-Christian basilica from the end of the 4th century, situated above several martyr tombs. It has a projecting semicircular apse, a rectangular naos divided into three naves by individual pillars, that used to support, in the vertical part of the edifice, a wooden ridged roof, covered by gutter tiles. It had no narthex, instead it used to have pilasters fastened at the south ends of the lateral valves, in order to sustain some transversal archways, and compartmentalized the interior space of the lateral naves, on both sides of the entrance to the central nave, a wide entrance situated on the apse axis. In the central zone of the apse, under the altar pavement, there is a monumental martyr crypt, completely

buried, housing a group of four martyrs at the upper part of the martyrion Zotikos, Attalos, Camasis and Philippos, and two martyrs on the lower level, that originate in an earlier martyr tomb. The martyrion at Niculiel is a unique monument in Europe. The protecting edifice creates an elegant, aired and pleasant interior. The perimetral gallery destined to the inflow of visitors ensures a permanent visual contact with the monument, and the permanent exhibition of paleo-Christian artefacts, colour photographs and slides complete the museum collection.The discovery of the monument is due to torrential rain in the spring of 1971 that uncovered a part of the crypt cupola. As it is in a sloping position, in an inhabited area, and at a crossroads, the monument needed to be long studied during the years 1971, 1975, 1985 and 1994.

ICEM Tulcea has managed the Sulina Lighthouse since 2003, when it turned into a museum. The experts of the Archaeology and History Museum in Tulcea, which governs the museum, have arranged the two rooms on the ground floor. One of them is dedicated to the memory of Jean Bart a personality that at the beginning of the 20th century was at Sulina a sea commissary. The second one is dedicated to the European Danube Commisions - an international organization that transformed the small fishing settlement from the beginning of the 19th century into an important harbour with a flourishing economy. The exhibits of the Sulina Lighthouse Museum belong to the modern and contemporary history collection of the History and Archaeology Museum that belongs to the Eco-Museum Research Institute. One can remark the pieces of furniture that belonged to the writer Jean Bart and his family photographs, the weaponry collection from the 18th - 20th centuries, the medals, documents, maps and photographs relating to the activity of the European Danube Commission. As the name indicates, the Sulina museum was organized in a lighthouse, that was built by the European Danube Commission between 1869 and 1870. The project was designed by M. Engelhardt, a doctor, a collaborator outside the Technical Office of the European Danube Commisions. The project was managed by Sir Charles A. Hartley. Over the years the construction underwent several changes on the outside and inside, which did not affect the original structure. After 1989 the Sulina Great Lighthouse was restored by the Ministry of Culture and Religious Affairs, and in 2003 was taken over by ICEM Tulcea. The building has historic value and was listed in 2004 with the indicative TL II mA06023. The construction is 17.34 m high, in the shape of a truncated cone, has two large rooms on the ground floor, arranged for the museum, and the exhibition space is 70 sq.m. The rooms built around the Lighthouse, at number 7, that functioned as homes for the staff and deposits for the materials necessary for the operation of the lighthouse, are currently used as museum annexes. At the same time the inner courtyard confers a special atmosphere to the museum.

Muzeul a fost conceput ca un sat specific zonal, care n decursul timpului a evoluat de la aezare de tip "rsfirat" i "risipit" la satul de tip "adunat". Casele i gospodriile s-au grupat pe principalele subzone ale Maramureului istoric. n ansamblul su muzeul se constituie ca o rezervaie de monumente de arhitectur rneasc. Planul caselor mai vechi cuprinde dou sau trei ncperi. La finele secolului al XVIII-lea apar case cu planuri evoluate, avnd mai multe ncperi judicios compartimentate.

ncheiate n "cheotoare nemeasc", n sistemul "blockbau". Acoperiurile sunt ntotdeauna n patru ape. Dac la casele foarte vechi (secolele XVI - XVII) lipsete prispa, n secolul al XVIII-lea aceasta este generalizat, este format dintr-o succesiune de stlpi cioplii i ornamentai, care formeaz frumoase arcade ce dau o not specific. Multe construcii au pe lng valoarea arhitectonic i valoare documentar deosebit din cauza inscripiilor. Porile sunt realizri de excepie n Maramure. Poarta a fost marc social a proprietarului. Preponderent pe stlpii porilor apar "pomul vieii" ca simbol al vieii fr de moarte, nsemne solare i stelare, mrci cretine, dar i arpele, cocoul sau figuri antropomorfe, toate ca mrci ale unei profunde credine ncifrate i pierdute n negura vremurilor. The museum was designed as a specific local village, that evolved over the time from the "scattered" "spread" type to the "gathered" type. The houses and homesteads were grouped according to the main subzones of historical Maramure. Broadly, the museum emerged as a reservation of folk architecture monuments. The plan of earlier houses comprises two or three rooms, but by the end of the 18th century emerged more evolved houses with several well partitioned rooms. The walls of the constructions are of wide thick beams ended in the "blockbau" system. The roofs are gabled. While earlier houses (16th - 17th centuries) lack verandas, in the 18th centuries almost all had one, made of a sequence of carved decorated pillars forming beautiful archways of a specific pattern. Many constructions have not only an architectural value, but also a documentary one due to their inscriptions. The gates are exceptional pieces in Maramure. The gates used to be social tokens of the owners. The prevailing pattern on the pillars is the "life tree" as a symbol of life without death, solar and star designs, Christian emblems, but also the snake, cock or anthropomorphic figures, all of them marking a long lasting deep faith from immemorial times.

Ellie Wiesel s-a nscut n anul 1928 la Sighetul Marmaiei, primii 15 ani petrecndu-i n Romnia. Sighetul Marmaiei are, pe lng amintirile copilriei, i amintiri tragice legate de pierderea familiei sale n timpul deportrilor din perioada horthyst, cnd foarte muli evrei au czut victime acestor evenimente. n anul 1944 Ellie Wiesel mpreun cu ntreaga familie i ceilali evrei din Sighet i Maramure, n numr de peste 38.000, au fost deportai de ctre horthyti i naziti n lagrele morii. Tnrul adolescent va fi marcat toat viaa de crimele i ororile de nenchipuit petrecute n lagrele de la Auschwitz, Birkenau i Buchewald. Cunoscutul romancier, dramaturg, eseist i memorialist Ellie Wiesel a pledat att n trecut, ct i n prezent pentru pace. n prezent Ellie Wiesel, laureat al Premiului Nobel pentru Pace, este titular la catedra de tiine Umaniste a Universitii din Boston, 55 de universiti din ntreaga lume decernndu-i titlul de "Doctor Honoris Causa", printre care i Universitatea Yale. Prima sa carte de memorii, "La Nuit", apare n 1958, i cuprinde experienele sale n lagrele de concentrare germane. Din acel an, sub semntura sa au aprut aproape 40 de cri, toate inspirate din suferinele evreilor n timpul celui de-al doilea rzboi mondial. Din lucrrile sale transpare interesul profund fa de situaia evreilor i a altor grupuri, care au suferit persecuii i umiline din cauza religiei, rasei i a originii naionale. Ellie Wiesel was born in 1928 at Sighetul Marmaiei, and spent his first 15 years in Romania. Sighetul Marmaiei reminds him of childhood memories, but also tragic memories relating to the loss of his family during the deportations from Horty's period, when many Jews fell victims of these events. In 1944, Ellie Wiesel together with the whole family and the other Jews from Sighet and Maramure, counting over 38,000, were deported by the Horthys and the Nazis in death camps. The young adolescent would be marked for life by the unimaginable crimes and horrors that occurred in the Auschwitz, Birkenau and Buchenwald camps. The wellknown novelist, playwright, essayist and memoirist Ellie Wiesel has always pleaded for peace. Currently, Ellie Wiesel, a winner of the Nobel Prize for Peace, is a titular of the Humanities chair of Boston University, while 55 universities worldwide awarded him the title of "Doctor Honoris Causa", including Yale University. His first book of memoirs, "La Nuit", issued in 1958, accounts his experiences in German concentration camps. From that year onwards, he signed almost 40 books, all of them inspired by the ordeal of the Jews during World War II. His works reveal his profound empathy with the condition of the Jews and of other ethnic groups, who suffered persecutions and humiliations because of their religion, race or national origin. Ansamblul muzeal evoc personalitatea lui Vasile Lucaciu, supranumit "Leul de la ieti" (1852 - 1922), cunoscut lupttor pentru drepturile romnilor din Transilvania.

Cldirea actual a Muzeului a aparinut unei familii de etnici germani, n 2003 a fost amenajat (i s-a mai ridicat un nivel). La parter dispune de o sal de istorie n suprafa de 40 mp. La etaj exist o sal de 70 mp pentru expoziia de etnografie, una de 20 mp pentru obiectele de cult, precum i o teras de 30 mp pentru expunerea obiectelor muzeale mai mari. nceputurile Muzeului din Vieu de Sus se leag de constituirea primelor colecii de obiecte etnografice i istorice, n jurul anului 1970 la colile generale i la liceul din localitate, aici deschizndu-se i un mic muzeu ntr-o sal de clas. Avnd la baz aceste colecii, s-a format un muzeu al oraului sub tutela Muzeului din Sighetu Marmaiei care, din pcate, n-a supravieuit n condiiile crizei comuniste din anii 1985 - 1989. Cldirea s-a degradat i a fost nstrinat, iar piesele, n marea majoritate, s-au pierdut, ceea ce a mai rmas s-a depozitat n condiii improprii. Muzeul a fost redeschis n 2001, a fost renovat i reetajat. A urmat refacerea fondului muzeistic prin restaurarea obiectelor ce au mai rmas din vechiul muzeu, s-au fcut noi achiziii, s-au primit donaii, astfel la 1 Decembrie 2003 Muzeul de Istorie i Etnografie Vieu de Sus a fost deschis spre vizitare publicului larg. Secia de istorie este gzduit ntr-o sal ce conine: obiecte i ilustraii (reproduceri de documente, fotografii), dispuse n cinci vitrine i pe nou panouri de sticl, s-a nfiat o sintez a istoriei locale. Secia de etnografie este gzduit n dou sli: n prima, sunt ilustrate, prin poze vechi i obiecte de lemn, principalele ocupaii ale locuitorilor: agricultura, pstoritul, lucrul la pdure, prelucrarea cnepii i a lnii, arta popular i ceramica, de asemenea, ntr-o vitrin nchis, sunt prezentate elementele portului popular ale etniilor ce au convieuit n aceast zon, iar n sala a doua sunt prezentate elemente ale vieii culturale i religioase a locuitorilor zonei. The present building of the Museum belonged to a German family. It turned into a museum in 2003 by adding a new storey to it. On the ground floor there is a 40 sq.m. room dedicated to the History Department, offices and an exhibition room of 30 sq.m., as well as a storage room for the objects of the Museum. On the first floor there is a 70 sq.m. room dedicated to the Ethnography Department, a 20 sq.m. room for cult objects, a 20 sq.m. restoration laboratory, a 10 sq.m. office and a toilet, as well as a 30 sq.m. terrace for bigger objects on display. The beginnings of the Museum of Vieu de Sus are related to the first collections of ethnographic objects, around the year 1970, in the local general schools and high school, where a small museum was opened in a classroom. Starting from this collection, a small museum was opened under the protection of the Museum of Sighetu Marmaiei which did not survive the harsh communist period of 1985-1989. The building becomes a relict and it was eventually given and most of the exhibits were lost. After the revolution the local community succeeded in re-opening the museum in 2001 and the building was renovated. The next step was completing the collections, restoring the old objects and buying or receiving new ones as donations. On the 1st December 2003 the Museum of History and Ethnography of Vieu de Sus was opened for the public. The History Department is hosted by one room where objects and pictures (reproductions of documents and photographs) are displayed in five show cases and nine glass panels presenting the local history. The Ethnography Department hosted in two rooms In the first room the occupations of the local people are illustrated with old pictures and wooden objects: agriculture, shepherding, work in the woods, processing hemp and wool, popular art and pottery. In a closed show case are presented elements of popular clothing of different peoples that have lived here.

Specialists in the field were called in. The refurbishment of the hall went on, by fixing panels covered with cloth on which lie the icons according to a certain classification, small boards with explanations for each icon, and lighting panels with small special reflectors etc. The museum collection includes 106 rare icons dating from the period 1816 - 1920 and are carried out under the influence of the Slav artistic environment (the Kazan, Ahtr types etc.), the Russian school (the Vladimir type), the Romanian school (folk style, Baroque style etc.), using the technique of painting on wood and a few silver and brass locks. Beside these icons the museum hall presents a large part of the iconostasis with which the monastery church was endowed in 1941.

Biserica mnstirii Galata este ctitorit de domnitorul Petru chiopu, fiind ridicat ntre anii 1582 - 1584. Biserica a fost construit din crmid i piatr cioplit, sprijinit pe contraforturi i a fost consolidat n mai multe rnduri, ceea ce a fcut ca zidirea s reziste la cutremure i incendii. Zidul de piatr ce nconjoar Galata s-a construit ncepnd din anul 1735, iar partea superioar a turnului clopotni s-a adugat n vremea lui Mihail Sturdza. Mnstirea Galata se numr printre puinele monumente de art medieval care, n pofida timpul scurs i a interveniei restauratorilor, i-a pstrat n mare parte autenticitatea i unitatea compoziional i stilistic. Pictura original a bisericii nu se mai pstreaz, fiind distrus, odat cu catapeteasma i alte obiecte bisericeti, de incendiul din 1762. n prezent se mai pstreaz doar cteva fragmente de fresc, unul din cele mai importante fiind tabloul votiv. Lucrrile de restaurare din anii '70 au scos la iveal morminte domneti (Despina i Vlad, doi copii ai lui Petru chiopul i Maria Amirali - soia voievodului - decedat n 1588). Este pe Lista monumentelor istorice din 2004. Prince Petru chiopu of Moldavia built the church of the monastery between 1582 and 1584. The church was built of bricks and cut stone, supported on abutments, consolidated several times, which helped the construction survive earthquakes and fires. The stone wall surrounding Galata started to be raised in 1735. The upper part of the bell tower was added during the time of Michael Sturza. Galata Monastery counts among the few monuments of mediaeval art that, in spite of the time elapsed and the restorers' intervention, has preserved

most of its authenticity and compositional and stylistic unity. The original painting of the church has not been preserved, as it was damaged, together with the catapetasma and other church items, by the 1762 fire. Only a few fragments from a fresco have survived, one of the most important being a votive picture. The restoration works from the '70s uncovered princely tombs (Despina and Vlad, two children of Petru chiopul and Maria Amirali - the prince's wife - deceased in 1588).

The "in situ" construction protecting a princely tomb from the 4th - 3rd centuries BC shelters also local history elements, as well as windows with original archaeological finds dating to the Cucuteni culture period. Located in the north end of the village of Cucuteni, on Gosan Hill, in the location of "La pietrrie", the Daco-Getic tumular cemetery dates to the 4th century BC and has eight tumuli (burial mounds). Three of them were systematically excavated by archaeologists, the largest of them (mound no. 2, 3.30 m high and 35 m in diameter) being protected by a special construction raised in 1984, upon the centenary of the discovery of the Cucuteni culture. The mound shelters a kind of stone precinct, round in shape, having an access path in the south-east part. Within the precinct we uncovered four cremation tombs, a main one for which the mound was raised and three secondary ones. The construction of the edifice (without supporting pillars) sheltering the mound makes it possible to view the cut tumulus fully.

Muzeul de Istorie i Etnografie History and Ethnography Museum
It was raised during the time of Peter I Muat. The first documentary mention dates to 1395. During the time of Alexander Lpuneanu (1564 - 1568) the fortress was partially destroyed. In the year 1691, the fortress was defended by a small group of frontier guards against the siege of the Polish army headed by John Sobietski. The works conducted during the time of Stephen the Great strengthened it, due to the defence ditch flanked by strong bastions, the very high walls, the access paths, which made it impossible to transport the battle "machine" for destroying the walls, Neam Fortress became one of the strongest fortresses in Moldavia. In the year 1866 Neam Fortress was listed as a historic monument. The wall reconsolidation works, conducted between 1968 and 1972, under the leadership of the well known architect tefan Bal, were designed to conserve and maintain the monument as it had been, without reconstructing the vanished parts. From lack of reliable information, they executed only some terraces necessary for a safe visitation of this historic site. n urma spturilor arheologice desfurate, cu intermitene, din 1939 pn n 1963, s-a organizat primul nucleu expoziional. n 1957 a avut loc deschiderea oficial a muzeului, ntro cldire de lng parcul oraului. n 1968 muzeul a fost reorganizat n cldirea fostului Sfat popular raional, n 1977 a fost reorganizat i transferat n actuala cldire, iar n 1986 a avut loc o nou reorganizare, devenind Muzeul de Istorie i Etnografie Trgu Neam.

The Bukovina Village Museum stands close to the Suceava Crown City, and presents the folk cultural and architectural heritage in ara de Sus (Highland). The most recent open air museum of Romania emerged during the eighth decade of the last century, when the Bukovina village had numerous monuments of folk architecture, but unfortunately, the activity consisting in transferring several monuments and reconstructing three of them was interrupted. After 1990, new homesteads and technical installations were moved on the plateau of the city, as 30 monuments folk architecture were reconstructed and put on display. Designed as a traditional Bukovina village, the open air exhibition will comprise 80 monuments of folk architecture: a church, a school, homesteads, workshops, technical installations, a public house. Monuments of folk architecture from the whole Bukovina are reconstructed on six hectares. Vama Church, monument of architecture, dates from 1783. The building is richly adorned with zoomorphic motifs (horse head) and geometric ones (rosette). The church is a classical triconch plan, and the original painting is extant only in the area of the altar. The bell tower was reconstructed next to the church. Dorna Cndreni House, built by late 18th century, at the time encountered rather frequently, is nowadays a unique piece from the area. The house is fitted with objects specific of Dorna area and an inventory including artefacts used by men for forestry and rafting. Rou House, built by late 19th century, is representative for the Dorna area. The large building belonged to well off villagers, which is obvious from the two kilns with town like elements and the wide pavilion at the entrance. The public house of Mo Iordache dates from 1928 - 1930, and functioned as a public house in the village of aru Dornei until after World War II. On a small water course named "Prul Morii" a mill with hydraulic wheel is reconstructed. The stone mill from Humor Monastery, dating from late 19th century, used to be the largest mill in this area. Straja homestead, dating from the middle of the 19th century, typical of the transition area from mountain to plateau, comprises a dwelling house, stables and a pantry. Ostra House, dating from the second half of the 18th century, monumental due to proportions and sizes, has preserved a traditional construction plan widespread in Bukovina.

There are the three wooden churches, wooden crosses, the fresco of Master Manole's legend in "Manole" Hall in the Bishopric Palace, the original monastery temple, rare icons. Situat n partea sudic a Masivului Piatra-Craiului, zona Rucr - Dmbovicioara se caracterizeaz printr-un relief carstic variat, spectaculos. Lung de peste 250 m, aceast peter are aspectul unei galerii puin ramificate, traseul su fiind puin ascendent; ea poate fi strbtut uor, avnd plafonul mai nalt dect statura omului (circa 2 m). Interiorul ofer condiii optime de vizitare. Fauna caracteristic unor asemenea forme carstice se arat relativ srac, pn acum nu au fost semnalate specii cavernicole, n schimb s-au gsit resturile fosile ale ursului de peter (Ursus spelaeus). Localnicii o cunoteau nainte de 1579, an n care Dmbovicioara este atestat documentar, de pe vremea lui Mihnea Turcitul. Mai trziu, n 1767, J. Fridvalsky o citeaz n lucrarea tiinific "Mineralogia Magni Principatus Transilvaniae", ea constituind prima form carstic de acest fel din Muntenia, pomenit ntr-un studiu de specialitate. Situated in the south part of Piatra-Craiului Massif, the Rucr Dmbovicioara area is characterized by a varied spectacular carstic relief. This cave, over 250 m long, looks like a slightly branched gallery, with a slightly upward track; it can be crossed easily, as its ceiling is higher than mans stature (about two meters). The interior offers excellent conditions for visitation. The fauna characteristic of such carstic forms proves to be scarce, as until now no cave species were found. Instead, the fossil remains of the cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) were found. Locals had known it before 1579, the year when Dmbovicioara was documented, during the time of Mihnea Turcitul. Later, in 1767, J. Fridvalsky cites it in the scientific work Mineralogia magni Principatus Transilvaniae, as it constitutes the first carstic form of this kind in Muntenia, mentioned in a relevant study. Sunt expuse obiecte de art din perioada medieval. The exhibition presents fine arts objects from the mediaeval period.

He graduated brilliantly from the Buzu Theological Seminar in 1945, and in 1949 he became a theology graduate. In 1975, he obtained the title of doctor, a month before his death. He boosted monastery life in Transylvania, as there religion was not flourishing like in Muntenia and Moldova. Father Diometie's life is closely linked to the Rme Monastery community (in 1959 he was appointed confessor-priest). He was a remarkable theologian, confessor priest, endowed with excellent household abilities. The museum was established by the brothers of Father Dometie in 2001. The building was Father Dometie's native home. It should be mentioned that only two rooms host the collections, as the exhibition space is about 25 sq.m. The exhibits include family photographs of the Father's, diploma copies, books on his life, a priestly garb, icons, and craftsman's items.

In 1891 Basil Iorgulescu demanded from the Ministry of Religious Affairs and Public Education the permission to build in Buzu a collection of archaeological and historical pieces, that had been gathered by him during more than 10 years of searches in the county. Consequently, in 1895 the first public collection of archaeological, anthropological and historical pieces emerged in Buzu, exhibited in one of the halls of the "Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu" High School. We may consider that moment as the birth date of the first museum of Buzu. The first permanent museum exhibition (located in 145 Unirii Street) dates from 1955, when the heritage was made up of pieces taken over by the school collections and the materials coming from the archaeological excavations at Srata Monteoru and Aldeni. In February 1968, the town museum became a county museum. From 1971 new themes were elaborated, based especially on the archaeology and history museum heritage. Simultaneously, the first museum storerooms were organized, according to scientific criteria.

Centrul administreaz palatele brncoveneti de la Mogooaia i Potlogi (construite n 1698, iar curtea ntre 1681 1700). Palatul brncovenesc de la Mogooaia a fost atestat prima oar ntr-un act din 24 aprilie 1698. Construcia s-a finalizat la 20 septembrie 1702 (precizat n pisania prins deasupra uii de intrare). Palatul a servit ca locuin lui tefan, fiul domnitorului Constantin Brncoveanu. Aezat pe malul lacului, ntr-o curte dreptunghiular mprejmuit de ziduri puternice, palatul are un plan regulat, rectangular, nlndu-se pe trei niveluri: subsol (pivnia), parter i etaj. Pivnia se remarc prin dimensiuni i masivitate. Un pilon central mparte spaiul n patru ncperi, acoperite fiecare cu cte o cupol pe pandantivi. Parterul cuprindea opt ncperi destinate slujitorilor domnului, iar etajul era rezervat n ntregime familiei domneti. La etaj, pe faada
dinspre lac, se afl cel mai rafinat element de arhitectur al palatului: splendida "loggia" de inspiraie veneian, cu trei arcade. Azi apare ncadrat de dou foioare, adugate n timpul renovrii din perioada 1860 - 1880, remarcndu-se prin coloanele lor cu capiteluri sculptate n piatr. Foiorul de pe latura de rsrit a palatului este de asemenea sprijinit pe opt coloane de piatr, avnd o balustrad bogat decorat. Bolta foiorului fusese acoperit cu pictur mural cu motive geometrice i vegetale, din care se mai pstreaz cteva fragmente. La etaj - probabil n sala sptriei - exista o mare fresc ce istorisea, n panouri de cte doi metri, cltoria domnitorului la Adrianopol, n 1703, i ntlnirea lui cu sultanul. Fragmente din aceast fresc se mai pstrau nc la jumtatea secolului al XIX-lea, dar majoritatea picturilor, stucaturilor i decoraiilor interioare au fost distruse de turci n 1775. Incrustaiile bogate reunesc elemente stilistice caracteristice att renaterii ct i barocului. Domeniul Mogooaia cuprinde azi un parc englezesc, cu grdini n stil italian, o curte n care se afla palatul, cuhnia, gheria, turnul porii (ante 1702), casa de oaspei (secolul al XVII-lea, refaceri n 1927 - 1936), iar n exteriorul ei serele "N. Bibescu" (1890), paraclisul "Sf. Gheorghe" (1688), i capela Gheorghe Bibescu (secolul al XIX-lea). Palatul adpostete donaia Liana i Dan Nasta, o colecie de art comparat (circa 300 de piese), n slile parterului i n anexe fiind prezentate anual circa 12 expoziii temporare, tematice sau de art contemporan. n casa de oaspei funcioneaz un centru de conferine i rezidene. The centre manages the Brancovan palaces of Mogooaia and Potlogi (1698, the courtyard 1681 - 1700). The Brancovan Palace of Mogooaia was first documented on the 24th of April 1698. The construction was completed on the 20 September 1702 (as the inscription above the main door reads). Stephen, son of Prince Constantine Brancovan lived in the palace. Set by the lakeside, in a rectangular courtyard surrounded by strong walls, the palace has a rectangular, regular plan, having three storeys: basement (cellar), ground floor and upper floor. The cellar is remarkable due to its sizes and solidness. A central pillar divides the space into four rooms, each covered by a cupola with pendants. The ground floor comprises eight rooms for the prince's servants, while the entire upper floor used to be inhabited by the princely family. At the upper storey, on the faade looking out the lake, there is the most refined architectural element of the palace: the magnificent loggia, Venetian in style, with three arches. Nowadays it is framed by two turrets, added during the restoration from 1860 - 1880, that can be remarked due to their columns with capitals carved in stone. In addition, the turret on the east side of the palace stands on eight stone columns, with a richly decorated balustrade. The vault of the turret had been covered with mural painting with geometric and floral motifs, of which a few fragments are extant. On the upper floor, probably in the High Spatharus hall, there is a large fresco depicting, on two meter panels each, the travel of the prince to Adrianopolis, in 1703, and his encounter with the sultan. Fragments from this fresco were still extant by the middle of the 19th century, but most paintings, stuccos and interior decorations were destroyed by the Turks in 1775. The rich inlaid work mingls stylistic elements characteristic both of the Renaissance and the Baroque. Nowadays Mogooaia estate comprises an English park, with Italian style gardens, a courtyard where there are the palace, kitchen, ice house, gate tower (before 1702), the guest house (the 17th century, 1927 - 1936 restorations), and outside it "N. Bibescu" greenhouses (1890), "St. George" Chapel (1688), and Gheorghe Bibescu Chapel (the 19th century).

Ansamblul arhitectonic de la Brebu reprezint unul dintre cele mai importante monumente ctitorite de Matei Basarab, nceput n 1650 i desvrit de Constantin Brncoveanu n anul 1689, constituind o realizare reprezentativ a arhitecturii secolului al XVII-lea. Complexul istoric de la Brebu este asemntor palatelor brncoveneti. Alturi de biseric, n incinta mnstirii, ctitorul a ridicat case ncptoare, de locuit n timpul verii, care au fost construite odat cu cetatea, turnul i biserica. Constantin Brncoveanu a continuat lucrrile ncepute de Matei Basarab. Dup secularizarea averilor mnstireti, biserica a fost transformat n biseric de mir, iar moiile au trecut n patrimoniul Eforiei Spitalelor civile, fiind folosite ca loc de recreaie a elevelor de la Azilul "Elena Doamna". Mai trziu aici a funcionat un sanatoriu, care s-a transformat apoi n preventoriu, iar n anii 1950 - 1957 a gzduit un azil de btrni. Asupra acestui ansamblu arhitectonic s-a intervenit de dou ori; o prim reparaie a fost fcut n 1843, n timpul domnitorului Gheorghe Bibescu, fiind urmat apoi de o nou restaurare n anii 1957 - 1959, cnd monumentul a fost readus la forma iniial, dndu-i-se destinaia de muzeu. Sunt expuse piese de art medieval (icoane, obiecte de art decorativ: veminte, costume boiereti din catifea cu fir de aur i argint, podoabe i bijuterii de epoc); vechi tiprituri romneti din secolele XVII - XVIII, ndeosebi din vremea lui Matei Basarab i Constantin Brncoveanu ("Pravila de la Govora" din anul 1640, "ndreptarea Legii", tiprit la Trgovite n 1652, "Biblia de la Bucureti" din 1688, cri realizate de mitropolitul Dosoftei i de Antim Ivireanu la Snagov); documente, unelte, vase din ceramic i metal, arme, monede, inele. The architectonic complex of Brebu represents one of the most important monuments built by Prince Matei Basarab started in 1650, and finished by Prince Constantine Brancovan in 1689, being a representative work of the 17th century architecture. The historic complex of Brebu is similar to the Brancovan palaces that functioned as both homes and military centres. The exterior walls were at the same time defence walls battlements and watching bridges. The entrance to the precinct of the entire architectonic complex is under the belfry, which is a four-storey massive brick building, 27 metres high. Next to the church, in the monastery precinct, the builder raised large summerhouses that were built at the same time with the fortress, tower, and church. Constantine Brancovan, who continued the works begun by Matei Basarab, sent the peasants away from the Podul Cheii border in order to extend the
237
monastery premises, which brought him a lot of criticism. The struggle between the monks and the peasants lasted until 1863, when the monastery fortunes were secularized and when the monastery was turned into Parish church, and the estates were taken over by the Civil Hospitals. Later, it functioned as a sanatorium, and between 1950 and 1957, it housed an asylum for old people. This architectonic complex was restored two times: in 1843, during the reign of Gheorghe Bibescu, and between 1957 and 1959, when the monument was brought to the original shape, and became a museum. The exhibits include mediaeval art items (icons, decorative art objects: garments, velvet boyar garbs decorated with gold and silver threads, ornaments and jewels); old Romanian prints from the 17th - 18th centuries, especially from the time of Matei Basarab and Constantine Brancovan ("The Code of Law of Govora" from 1640, "The Straightening the Law", printed at Trgovite in 1652, "The Bible of Bucharest" from 1688, books achieved by Metropolitan Dosoftei and Antim Ivireanul at Snagov), documents, tools, pottery, weapons, coins, rings.

Dup o perioada de restaurare nceput n 1990, vila Lumini a intrat n circuitul muzeal naional, sub denumirea de Casa Memorial "George Enescu". n ncperile de la etaj se reunesc n mod armonios elemente ornamentale i de mobilier n stilul Biedermeier. Numeroase piese de valoare din cristal, porelan, metal sau ceramic dau strlucire interioarelor. n salon se pstreaz pianul maestrului, un Ibach, fcut la Lausanne. La Sinaia s-au compus Rapsodiile romne, Concertul pentru pian, vioar, viol i violoncel nr. 1 n Re major, Opus 16, numeroase sonate, printre care Sonata pentru pian n Fa diez minor, Opus 24, nr. 1. Aici, n vila Lumini, n anul 1927, a luat lecii de vioar, timp de dou luni, Yehudi Menuhin. Etajul mansardat a fost adugat de arhitectul casei, Radu Dudescu, pentru a echilibra verticalitatea turnului n ansamblul vilei i a devenit locul preferat al maestrului pentru activitatea muzical. n camerele mansardei este astzi prezentat materialul documentar legat de viaa i activitatea lui George Enescu. Tot din salon se ptrunde n camera soiei lui George Enescu, Maria Cantacuzino-Enescu, unde ambiana trdeaz spiritul eclectic al acesteia. n schimb, camera maestrului se remarc prin intimitate i este mobilat ntr-un stil autentic romnesc. Spaiile de la parterul vilei au fost destinate personalului de serviciu, dar tot aici se afla i apartamentul pentru oaspei. Bustul n marmur al lui George Enescu, aflat la intrarea n vil, este realizat de sculptorul Ion Irimescu. George Enescu used Lumini Villa, designed in an authentic Romanian style, as a place both for resting after his numerous concerts, and of inspiration for a considerable part of his creation. After he deserted this fatherland for good in 1946, because of political events, in 1947 in Paris he signed for the donation of Lumini Villa, that turned into a cultural establishment, meant as a recreation and meditation house for Romanian and foreign artists. After a restoration period began in 1990, Lumini Villa was included in the national museum circuit, under the name of "George Enescu" Memorial House. The upper floor rooms are large, with furnished interior, arranged with refinement and imagination. There harmoniously mingle Bidermayer decoration and furniture. Many valuable crystal, porcelain, metal or ceramic pieces give brilliance to the interiors. The master's piano, an Ibach made at Lausanne, is located in the hall. Here at Sinaia, he created the Romanian rhapsodies, the piano, violin and cello concert, no. 1, D, Opus 16, many sonatas, including the piano sonata F sharp, Opus 24, no. 1. There, in Lumini Villa, in 1927, he taught Yehudi Menuhin violin lessons for two months. From the hall, the spiral staircase allows the access to the end of the belvedere tower and from there to the attic. The attic floor was added by the architect of the house, Radu Dudescu, to balance the verticality of the tower within the whole villa and became the favourite place of the master for his musical activity. Today in the attic rooms there is on display a rich documentary material relating to the life and activity of George Enescu. Also from the hall one steps into the room of George Enescu's wife, Maria Cantacuzino-Enescu, where the atmosphere reveals an eclectic outlook. Instead, the master's room is remarkably intimate and furnished in an authentic Romanian style. The rooms on the ground floor of the villa were meant for the servants, but also there was the guest room. The marble bust of George Enescu, found at the entrance to the villa, is the work of the sculptor Ion Irimescu.

The museum was established in 1951, having a mixed profile: history, ethnography, natural sciences. The building is a historic monument built in 1907. The museum exhibition includes two departments: folk art and ancient history. The richness of the settlement of Celei, starting from the Neolithic traces up to the Middle Ages has constantly supplied the museum heritage. The collections include archaeological finds, weapons, tools, household utensils, pottery, ornaments, coins bronze and marble statuettes, funerary monuments, pieces of architecture, epigraphic pieces of remarkable quality, Byzantine treasures.

Meanwhile, there is a selective collection of ethnography and folk art, including tools and utensils relating to agriculture, fishing, animal breeding, traditions, costumes. Ruinele acestei ceti au fost gsite pe teritoriul fostului sat Celei. Se pare c sunt urmele unei aezri din perioada de trecere de la Neolitic la Epoca bronzului aparinnd culturii Coofeni. n jurul acestei aezri, cu numele Sucidava, n perioada rzboaielor daco-romane, s-a construit un castru de pmnt, iar dup cucerirea Daciei, n jurul castrului s-au aezat primii coloniti romani, formnd un "vicus" (sat). Aezarea a devenit un important centru militar, economic i portuar, iar n anul 250 a devenit ora. n perioada 306 - 337, fiind distrus de huni, cetatea a fost refcut i transformat ntr-o baz militar, n care s-au construit cazrmi, grajduri, un pod peste Dunre i un fort. n secolul al XIV-lea, peste aceste ruine s-a instalat o aezare romneasc de bordeie. Au fost dezvelite zidurile de aprare, cu opt turnuri, ale oraului roman trziu Sucidava (secolele IV - VI), care, mpreun cu satul actual, acoper o parte a oraului roman din secolele II - III, mai puin cunoscut; bi romane, o basilica paleocretin (secolele V - VI), strzi pavate, o fntna subteran secret construit de romani; baza piciorului podului construit peste Dunre n timpul lui Constantin cel Mare etc. The ruins of this fortified settlement found on the territory of the former village of Celei seem to be the traces of a settlement from the transition period from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age, belonging to the Coofeni culture. Around this settlement by the name of Sucidava, during the Daco-Roman wars period, an earth camp was built, and after the conquest of Dacia, the first Roman colonists settled around the camp, forming the "vicus" (village). The settlement became an important military, economic and port centre, and in the year 250 it became a city. Between 306 and 337 the fortified settlement, destroyed by the Huns, was restored and turned into a military base where barracks, stables, a bridge over the Danube and a fort were built.

Construit iniial pentru prelaii Bisericii romano-catolice, n 1538 este menionat drept castel. n 1556 ajunge n proprietatea principilor transilvneni, mpreun cu restul domeniilor capitlului Bisericii catolice. ntre 1613 - 1629 a aparinut principelui Gabriel Bethlen. De-a lungul timpului, cldirea a cunoscut mai multe modificri. Sunt expuse piese de istorie veche i arheologie datnd din neolitic pn n evul mediu timpuriu: depozite de bronzuri hallstattiene (Cetea, Crizbav, Aiud, Zagon, plnaca I i II), piese scitice i celtice, coiful militar roman de bronz de la Lunca Mureului, monumente romane epigrafice i sculpturale, obiecte din villa rustica de la Aiudul de Sus. Ca instituie de cultur specific, muzeul a luat fiin n 1796 sub denumirea de Raritatvn et Rervm Natvralivm Mvsevm, pe lng Colegiul Academic Reformat Bethlen. Iniial valorile din domeniul istoriei au fost ncadrate n grupa "raritilor", mpreun cu anumite piese din domeniul tiinelor naturale. Abia n 1862 prof. Szathmary Karoly organizeaz prima colecie de antichiti, inclusiv cu obiecte din epoci mai recente. Coleciei numismatice, nfiinate n 1822, i se adaug n 1863 colecia de monede i medalii a grofului Mik Imre. Prin Hotrre de Guvern, n 1950, muzeul a fost separat de coal, fiind transformat n dou instituii de cultur distincte: Muzeul de Istorie i Muzeul de tiinele Naturii. The building is part of the Aiud fortress mediaeval architectural complex, situated in the central area of the town precincts. It was built in Transylvanian Gothic style on the northern side of the precincts wall, being made up of the Gate Tower (from the 14th century), and a building on the west wing, on the east-west axis, from the 16th - 17th centuries. Initially built for the Roman-Catholic Church prelates, the building is referred to as castle in 1538. In 1556 it becomes the property of the Transylvanian princes along with the rest of the domains of the Catholic Church. Between 1613 - 1629 it belonged to Prince Gabriel Bethlen. Depending on these various owners, the building bore the names of the Princely Castle/Palace or the Bethlen Castle/Residence. Later it would be named the Noblemen's House. Over the centuries several modifications of the roof, doors and windows were undertaken, especially during the 17th - 18th centuries, but also in the 19th century. By 1940, a number of dependencies were added to the edifice. Two decades ago the entire building underwent a few repairs. The collections include ancient history and archaeology exhibits from the Neolithic to the Early Middle Ages - Hallstatt bronze deposits (Cetatea, Crizbav, Zagon, plnaca I and II), Scythian and Celtic artefacts, Roman bronze helmet from Lunca Mureului, Roman epigraphic and sculpture monuments, artefacts from the rustic villa of Aiudul de Sus. As a specific cultural institution, the museum was established in 1796 under the name of raritavm et rervm natvralivm mvsevm, by the Bethlen Reformed Academic College. Initially the historic value items had been inserted into the "rarities" collection, together with other pieces from the natural sciences field. It was only in 1862 that Professor Szathmary Karoly organized the first antiquities collection, including items from more recent times. A numismatic collection was established in 1822. In 1863, it was enriched with the coins and medals collection of Mik Imre. These collections developed also due to the contribution of Professor Kerepey Karoly custodian of the antiquities collection between 1881 - 1896 and of Fenichel Samuel - exemployee of the Antiquities Museum in Bucharest, but also explorer of New Guinea and observer of the Papuan life. In 1950 the museum was separated from the college by Government Decision, being turned into two distinct cultural institutions: the History Museum and the Natural Sciences Museum.

The museum is housed in an important Baroque building from the 18th century, Banffy Palace, a historic monument, designed by the German architect Johann Eberhard Blaumann, and possesses an extremely precious heritage of Romanian and European art: paintings, graphics, and decorative art (the 15th - 20th centuries). Founded in 1951, from the very beginning the museum benefited from earlier collections: a small part of the curiosities collections, silverware, pieces of furniture and European fine arts, coming from the Transylvanian Museum, and above all the collection known under the name of "Virgil Cioflec Picture Gallery". Virgil Cioflec (1876 1948) donated his Romanian art collection to the University of Cluj (1929 1930). The opening to the public of the Virgil Cioflec picture gallery (1933) meant the opening in Cluj of the first modern Romanian art museum whose successor became the Cluj National Art Museum.

Created with the passion and competence of the connoisseur who can appreciate consecrated values (Nicolae Grigorescu, tefan Luchian, Dimitrie Paciurea), and support openmindedly authentic talents (Theodor Pallady, Camil Ressu, Vasile Popescu, Jean Al. Steriadi, Lucian Grigorescu, Oscar Han, Cornel Medrea), the Virgil Cioflec Collection also nowadays stands for the relevant core of the Cluj National Art Museum heritage. The museum collections enriched in the following years as transfers, donations, and acquisitions poured in. The works of art transferred by the Ministry of Culture, the Bucharest National Art Museum, and the local Administration (Barbu Iscovescu, Constantin David Rosenthal, Theodor Aman, Gheorghe Tattarescu, Gheorghe Panaitescu Bagdasare, Carol Popp de Szathmry, Ioan Andreescu, Karl Storck) were completed by a significant collection coming from the Cluj Subsidiary of the Romanian Academy (1971). This collection made a strong impact on the heritage as it comprises important works of art from Transylvania (unknown painters from the 18th - 19th centuries, Franz Neuhauser, Joseph Neuhauser, Franz Anton Bergman, Koreh Sigismund, Szathmari Gati Sandor, Simo Ferenc). The upper floor halls display the National Gallery. In 1990, the National Gallery was closed to be reorganized.

Foundation that appointed a commission for making proposals for the future museum. The commission charged Romulus Vuia to carry out in summer 1922 a research and acquisition campaign in the ethnographic areas of Pdureni and the Haeg Country. That campaign resulted in a collection of 1230 pieces and 160 ethnographic photographs. The collection laid the foundation for the official recognition of the Ethnographic Museum of Transylvania. Between 1922 and 1925, the museum was housed in the Museum of Arts and Professions, 5 Bariiu Street. In that building, in the spring of 1925, they opened the first exhibition displaying the acquisitions from Pdureni and the Haeg Country. Between 1925 and 1935, the museum functioned in the Mihai Viteazu Square building. In 1928, the permanent exhibition opened officially. The "Reduta" Palace, housing since 1959 the Ethnographic Museum of Transylvania, dates from the 16th century. In the 18th - 19th centuries here was one of the most important inns of the town. The exhibition included the following theme sectors: exhibits from nature, hunting, fishing, agriculture, animal breeding, textile domestic industry, furrier work, pottery, construction elements, kitchen pots, costumes, clothing, and ethnographic maps. After the Dictate of Vienna (1940), the museum moved to Sibiu where it functioned until 1945. The museum was reorganized in 1958, and the collection has been much enriched over the last 40 years, as the collections rose to 55,000 items. The museum has also a library of 12,000 volumes.

Un accent deosebit a fost pus pe primele dou sectoare. n cadrul primului sector exponatele sunt grupate n funcie de natura materiei prime prelucrate: prelucrarea lemnului; prelucrarea metalelor i mineritul rnesc; prelucrarea esturilor de ln; prelucrarea lutului; prelucrarea pietrei; prelucrarea produselor agricole. Conform planului tematic, n cadrul celui de-al doilea sector urmau s fie reconstituite gospodrii rneti caracteristice pentru diferite zone etnografice din Transilvania. n prezent sunt reprezentate urmtoarele zone etnografice: Maramure, Oa, Nsud, Cmpia Transilvaniei, Zarand, Podgoria Alba, Mocnimea Munilor Apuseni, Depresiunea Clele, Bran, Bistria (sai) i Gurghiu. Muzeul cuprinde aproximativ 200 obiective. Romulus Vuia designed the Ethnographic Park in 1929. After the Dictate of Vienna (30th of August 1940), the Park moved to Sibiu where it functioned until 1945. In 1956 Teodor Onior and Valer Butur restructured the Park on four theme sectors: Technical devices and trades workshops; Zonal patterns of homesteads and folk architecture monuments; Ethnobotany (traditional plants, boundary agricultural constructions; Livestock (animal breeding). The first two departments are considered to be essential. The first one takes into account the raw material of the exhibits: wood processing, metal processing and peasant mining; wool processing; earth processing; stone processing; agricultural products processing. The second one comprises exhibits from the Transylvanian ethnographic zones. Currently

Muzeul a fost inaugurat n aprilie 2001, dup ce ideea constituirii unei asemenea instituii a aprut odat cu aniversarea a 75 de ani de la nfiinarea universitii romneti din Cluj (n 1994), ea fiind reluat i cu ocazia aniversrii a 80 de ani (n 1999). Deschis iniial n doar dou sli el s-a extins, cu ncepere din ianuarie 2002, n alte trei ncperi, funcionnd n aceast form mult mai cuprinztoare. Expoziia permanent este organizat pe criterii cronologice, ncercnd n acelai timp s evidenieze caracterul multicultural i multietnic al vieii universitare clujene de-a lungul timpului. Muzeul adpostete date i informaii referitoare la evoluia instituiilor academice de nvmnt superior din Cluj - ncepnd din 1581, de la crearea colegiului iezuit condus de rectorul Antonio Possevino - i n special despre istoria universitii, care este astzi cunoscut sub numele de Universitatea Babe-Bolyai. Cu ajutorul fotografiilor de epoc, a documentelor originale ori n facsimil, a obiectelor personale i a crilor scrise sau folosite de ctre profesori pentru studierea disciplinelor tiinifice i umaniste, se reconstituie pe rnd istoria i activitatea tuturor colegiilor, facultilor i universitilor care au existat succesiv n oraul nostru. Primele panouri din expoziia muzeului universitii prezint date legate de elevii i profesorii de la colegiile pe care diferitele ordine religioase catolice i protestante le-au nfiinat i condus n Cluj ntre secolul al XVI-lea i al XIX-lea. Sunt ilustrate apoi cele mai semnificative aspecte din activitatea universitii maghiare Franz Iosif care a funcionat n Cluj ntre 1872 - 1918, cnd Transilvania era parte integrant a Imperiului austro-ungar. Prezentarea evoluiei Universitii Romneti "Regele Ferdinand" (1919 - 1945) ocup cea mai mare parte a expoziiei permanente a muzeului. Tot n cadrul expoziiei permanente sunt prezentate date legate de crearea Universitii "Babe-Bolyai", prin unificarea celor dou universiti, romn i maghiar, n 1959, precum i o istorie a evoluiei i transformrilor acestei noi instituii nainte i dup 1989, cnd "Babe-Bolyai" a devenit o universitate multicultural, de nivel european, cu specializri foarte numeroase i variate oferite azi studenilor, precum i un nalt nivel de cercetare tiinific. The Museum was inaugurated in April 2001. The idea of such a museum was first discussed in 1994 at the 75th anniversary of the foundation of the Cluj Romanian University and was again analyzed in 1999 at the 80th anniversary. Initially opened in only two rooms, the History
311
Museum of the "Babes-Bolyai" University was expanded in January 2002 in other three rooms. The permanent exhibition is organized chronologically, trying to outline the multicultural and multi-ethnical character of the university life in Cluj throughout the centuries. Our Museum hosts data and information about the evolution of the academic institutions of Cluj, starting with 1581 when a Jesuit College presided by the well-known monk Antonio Possevino - was founded in the city. A special attention is given to the history of the university, which is today known under the name of Babe-Bolyai. With the help of old photographs, original documents or facsimiles, personal belongings of the professors, books written or used by them for the study of sciences or humanities, the history and activity of each college, faculty and university which existed in Cluj throughout the centuries, is reconstructed for our visitors. Our first exhibition displays present data about the students and professors who studied and worked at the colleges created by different religious orders catholic or protestant between the 16th and 19th centuries. Significant aspects of the evolution of the Hungarian University Franz Josef, which functioned in Cluj between 1872 and 1918, when Transylvania was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, are next displayed. Most of the permanent exhibition is however dedicated to the development and activity of the Romanian university ,"King Ferdinand, which existed in Cluj between 1919 and 1945. Our permanent exhibition also displays information about the creation and evolution of the Babe-Bolyai University, which appeared in 1959 by an unification of the Romanian and Hungarian universities, and has, since its appearance, transformed itself into a multicultural, European level university, with many Faculties and specializations and a high level of scientific research.

The Dej City Museum is located in a building in the historical centre of Dej City, situated in the main square - Boblna Square. The building was raised in 1860 by the architect Grigore Pongracz, and the owner of the building was the nobleman (Baron) Nalaczi Carol. In 1997 the museum was removed from the initial location - the Franciscan Monastery Clauster - and due to a decision of the Dej Local Council moved to the current building. In 1899 the members of the "Society for Literature, History and Ethnography of the Solnoc-Dbca District" lay the foundation for a museum collection comprising 3,791 archaeology, art and ethnography items at the State High School in Dej. In 1900, following a inspection from the Inspectorate for Museums, it ceased to function because of inadequate maintenance and operation conditions. Until 1904 the materials were transferred to the Transylvanian Museum in Cluj and to the Fine Arts Museum in Budapest. In 1925 the City Council took the decision to establish a small communal, and in 1932 the "Dej City Museum and Library Regulations" were signed. On the 8th of September 1940 the city was invaded by the Horthy troops, that stormed the museum. Between 1952 and 1953 the heritage moved to the ground floor of the Prefecture (in the current City Hall). In 1968 the museum rose to the municipal rank and succeeded in extending to the building of the old City Hall, but in 1974, under unsafe conditions, it was forced into moving to another place, in the wet semi-basement of the Franciscan Clauster. The fine and decorative art collection includes paintings and sculptures carried out by the students of the "Nicolae Grigorescu" Institute for Fine Arts in Bucharest, as they were donated to the museum in 1971, due to Professor Raoul orban, Ph.D. The archaeology collection comprises archaeological finds achieved on the territory of Dej City, and nearby. Most artefacts include Roman inscriptions (votive and funerary altars), architectonic fragments, water feed pipes, pottery fragments, lamps, weapons, coins and other items. All these artefacts were uncovered in the Roman camp of Ceiu - Samum, 6 km away from Dej. The history collection includes several categories of museum objects: coats of arms carved in stone, weaponry (swords, spear tips, arrows, rifles, pistols, helmets, campaigns chests, a.s.o.) from different historical periods, guild chests, tools, flags, stamps, pottery, original or copy historical documents, rare books written in the Slavonic, Latin, Hungarian and German languages. The science and technology collection includes a mining history department - salt mining at Ocna Dej. A well represented department is represented by the numismatic collection counting over 2,000 coins, from various periods (the 14th - 20th centuries). The icon collection includes old wooden icons from the 18th - 19th centuries. In the Art Gallery, inaugurated on the 4th of March 1972, temporary exhibitions are organized, especially contemporary fine arts.

Muzeul este adpostit n castelul regal, amintit n documente prima dat n anul 1364 n 1409, este donat cneazului Voicu i rudelor sale. Iancu de Hunedoara ntreprinde lucrri n dou etape ntre anii 1441 - 1456, iniial mrind dimensiunile fortificaiei militare i apoi transformnd-o ntr-un castel unde predomin stilul gotic. Matei Corvin continu dup anul 1458 lucrrile, nfrumusend construcia cu elemente de influen renascentist. Ultima etap de construcie are loc ntre anii 1618 - 1624, cnd principele Transilvaniei, Gabriel Bethlen, realizeaz ultimele construcii (turnul nou al porii i palatul baroc de pe latura de est - actualmente cu faad neogotic). Dup anul 1724 au loc dou incendii, ultimul, cel din 1854, transformndu-l ntr-o ruin. Restaurrile se fac n mai multe etape: ntre 1868 - 1914, 1956 - 1968. Dup 1997 ncepe proiectul de punere n valoare a monumentului, care este unic n partea rsritean a Europei i reprezentativ pentru arhitectura civil i militar medieval. Muzeul, nfiinat n 1974, cuprindea iniial piese de lapidariu, actualmente muzeul deine i colecii de arheologie: ceramic, piese litice, metalice i osteologice provenite din spturile sistematice efectuate n zona Hunedoarei, acoperind cronologic perioadele istorice din paleolitic i pn n evul mediu; etnografie: piese i recuzit din portul pdurenesc, unelte specifice acestei zone; art decorativ: piese de mobilier sculptat, lzi de breasl, farfurii din ceramic i metal, icoane pe lemn i sticl, tablouri pe pnz, statui din lemn; numismatic: monede din secolele XVI - XIX; tehnic militar: arme de tiere, mpingere, lovire, arme de foc (marea majoritate fiind replici). The museum is housed in the Royal Castle mentioned in documents for the first time in 1364. In 1409, Knez Voicu and his relatives got it from the King. Iancu de Hunedoara conducted vast works in two stages between 1441 and 1456, at first by enlarging the military fortification, then turning it into a sumptuous castle by works mostly in the Gothic style. Matei Corvin continued the works after 1458, focusing upon the embellishment the existing construction, as the influence of Renaissance bore fruit. The last construction stage took place between 1618 and 1624 when Prince Gabriel Bethlen of Transylvania conducted the last great constructions (the new tower of the gate and the Baroque palace on the east side currently with a neo-Gothic faade). In 1724, the castle became the property of the Austrian treasury and stayed that way until 1880. That new role, after 1724, brought considerable damage to the monument, including two fires, and the last one in 1854 turned it into a ruin. It was later deserted until 1868, when a restoration began that lasted until 1914. It underwent a new restoration stage between 1956 and 1968. After 1987, they started the project of putting to good use the monument that is unique in the east part of Europe and representative for the mediaeval civil and military architecture. The museum, established in 1974, at first comprised lapidarium pieces from the restoration works conducted on the monument by the end of the 19th century and early 20th century. Currently the museum holds archaeological collections - pottery, lithic, metal and bone pieces, from the systematic excavation conducted in the area of Hunedoara, dating from the Palaeolithic to the Middle Ages; ethnography collections - pieces and accessories of forest workers, tools specific of the area; decorative art collections - pieces of sculpted furniture, guild chests, ceramic and metal plates, wood and glass icons, canvases, wooden statues; coins from the 16th - 19th centuries; military technique artefacts - weapons fro cutting, pushing, hitting, and fire arms (most of them replicas).

The Museum of Iron is situated on the premises of S.C. Mittal Steel Hunedoara, on the left bank of Cerna river, in a modern location near the highway. The Museum of the Iron was established in 1974, on the occasion of the 90th anniversary from the commissioning of the first modern furnace in Hunedoara. At first, although its inventory comprised an illustration in time, from the origins up to the present day, of how iron processing and production technology evolved, the museum was not included in a tourist program. As late as 1989, the SC Siderurgica SA management decided to initiate the procedure to include the Museum of the Iron into the national museum circuit. The Museum of the Iron may supplement any tourist track in the city of Hunedoara with interesting information on the technological human society in this region. The Museum of the Iron gathers interesting information on how iron processing and production technology evolved from the Hallstatt to the present day. The Museum of the Iron clearly meets the conditions of being a museum, as it focuses on the tradition of iron processing, the evolution of iron processing technologies, as well as on the educational aspect. The museum comprises more sectors, each of them presenting various moments in the history and evolution of iron extraction and processing technology. The Dacian period exhibition illustrates iron extraction and processing technologies, types of furnaces, tools, weapons and artefacts giving an image upon how this trade spread in the Dacian Kingdom. The Daco-Roman period collection includes finds from the area of Hunedoara, tools, weapons, types of furnaces. A model presents how the smithy from the 2nd century uncovered at Teliuc used to be organized. There is also on display the cast copy of the column uncovered in the workshop at Teliuc, proving the intense exploitation of iron ore. The stand also contains an iron magnifying glass uncovered in the cemetery on Snpetru hill in Hunedoara, next to pieces uncovered in the cemetery of the commune of Cinci. The Middle Ages stand reflects the evolution of the iron extraction furnace from the 9th century on. There is on display the model of the furnace from Valea Caselor - Ghelar and the photocopy after the model presented in the Museum of Science and Technology in London. In this part there are on display weapons, agricultural tools, smith's and miller's tools uncovered in the area of Hunedoara. 'Workshops from the 16th - 19th centuries' presents models of the workshops that functioned in the region of Hunedoara (the workshops at Cerna, Plosca, Toplia, Perintei, Baia de Coase, Baia de Sape, etc). 'The Beginnings of Modern Metallurgy' presents the moment when the Hunedoara steelworks were founded officially (12th of June 1884), as well as a rich documentary material on that period.

Obiectele existente provin de la peste 70 de farmacii vechi, oficii farmaceutice, instituii medicale i persoane particulare din 32 de localiti din ar. Colecia a stat n regim de depozitare timp de 20 de ani. Prin mrimea i diversitatea sa, colecia aduce valoroase mrturii despre evoluia tiinei i tehnicii farmaceutice, n general, i despre evoluia medicaiei i practicii farmaceutice la nivelul a peste trei secole. Ea cuprinde preparate medicamentoase, ustensile de laborator, recipiente, cri i documente, grafic documentar. O component distinct o reprezint inventarul homeopatic (2.910 piese), raritate european, ilustrnd interesul de care s-a bucurat aceast doctrin terapeutic la Sibiu, oraul n care a trit i activat Samuel Hahnemann, fondatorul homeopatiei. The building housing the museum is a historic monument dating from 1568, bearing many architectural elements specific of the period: vaulted spaces in the pavement and on the ground floor, an open loggia on the ground floor, decorated with stucco at the ceilings and period woodwork. Currently the museum spans the pavement of the building of 120 sq.m., currently owned by the institution. This space functioned as a pharmacy from 1600 onwards. It was one of the most famous Transylvanian pharmacies named "La Ursul Negru" ("Black Bears"). The original museum collection emerged between 1950 and 1951 following a Health Ministry decree regarding the gathering of all the pharmacy history vestiges from all the relevant institutions in the country at Brukenthal Museum. The artefacts come from 70 old pharmacies, pharmaceutical offices, medical institutions and private persons from 32 localities in the country. The collection has been stored for 20 years. Due to the size and diversity of the collection there are valuable testimonies on the evolution of pharmacy science and technology, generally, and on the evolution of medication and pharmaceutical practice for over three centuries. It comprises drugs, laboratory utensils, recipients, books and documents, documentary graphics. O distinct component is the homoeopathical inventory (2,910 pieces) a European rarity illustrating the high relevance of this therapy doctrine for Sibiu, the city where Samuel Hahnemann, the founder, lived and worked. Cldirile care compun ansamblul Muzeului de Istorie reprezint unul dintre cele mai impresionante monumente de arhitectur civil gotic, cu elemente de Renatere. Avnd iniial destinaia de locuin, casa Altemberger-Pempflinger (sub forma unui turn-locuin), a fost cumprat de Primria oraului n anul 1549. De atunci aici va funciona Primria oraului, pn n 1923, i Arhiva oraului i a comunitii sseti din Transilvania pn n 1948. Lucrrile de restaurare ale monumentului s-au desfurat, cu intermitene, ntre anii 1967 - 1988. n frontonul portalului de acces n cldire este ncastrat o plac de marmur, cu un text care, n limba latin, menioneaz vizita fcut la Primrie de ctre mpratul Iosif al II-lea, n vara anului 1773.

muzeal, dup tematica obligatorie a muzeelor de istorie. n anii 1990 - 1992 tematica a fost complet i fundamental restructurat, insistndu-se asupra particularitilor istorice ale zonei. Circuitul expoziional permanent cuprinde urmtoarele colecii: arheologie preistoric i istorie veche - 8.177 piese, colecia de obiecte medievale - 9.669 piese (arheologie medieval - 647 piese, produse de breasl - 1.690 piese, produse textile - 1.500 piese, obiecte din domeniul tiinei i tehnicii - 90 piese, arme i armuri - 1.880 piese, decoraii i medalii onorifice - 239 piese, produse din sticl i faian - 979 piese, sigilii, tampile, matrie, medalii i monede - 2.374 piese), colecia Tezaur - 63.435 piese, fondul de carte i periodice Carl Engber - 15.410 piese, colecia de cliee Emil Fischer - 8.050 piese, colecia de grafic documentar - 33.252 piese, colecia de istorie modern i contemporan - 2.227 piese. The buildings housing the History Museum represent one of the most impressive monuments of Gothic civil architecture bearing Renaissance elements. Originally meant to be a dwelling place, Altemberger-Pempflinger House (in the shape of a dwelling-tower), was purchased by the City Hall in 1549. From that year onwards until 1923 here functioned the City Hall, and the city Archives pertaining to the German community until 1948. The monument restoration works were conducted under the authority of the Historic Monuments Division between 1967 and 1988, with intermittences. The restoration was intended to emphasize the elements specific of Gothic architecture, as did also the rebuilding of the upper floor of the dwelling tower, as well as the refurbishment of the space with a view to turning it into a history museum. A marble plaque is embedded in front of the access gate to the building, reading in Latin the visit paid to the City Hall by Emperor Joseph II in the summer of 1773. The building with access to the ground and upper floors is adjoined by a tower that belonged to the third defence precinct of the city. In the garden-courtyard there is an elegant loggia made up of two bays. The museum collections emerged by the end of the 18th century, and many of the pieces were owned by the founder of the museum, Baron Samuel von Brukenthal. His collections pertaining to the History Museum heritage include coins, Dacian and Roman antiquities, as well as many pieces of high worth, from the mediaeval and modern ages, including: mechanisms pertaining to various disciplines of science and technology, musical instruments, decorative art objects (gold and silver ornaments), porcelain, glassware, textiles, weapons and guilds products. After World War II, as some Sibiu cultural institutions closed or were dismantled, the museum heritage grew considerably due to the transfer to the museum of some collections existing in the city (the Carpathian Society, the Weaponry Room of Sibiu, a part of the pieces from the Astra Association Museum), etc. In 1959 at Brukenthal Palace opened the History Department, in a too narrow a space for the worth and diversity of the collections. In 1986, when the restoration works were completed, two exhibitions opened, and in May 1988 the entire museum circuit was presented, according to the compulsory themes of history museums. Between 1990 and 1992, the themes were completely and fundamentally restructured, as the historical peculiarities of the region were outlined. The permanent exhibition circuit and the storerooms include items illustrating the following fields: ancient history, mediaeval history, both with a lapidarium, modern history, as well as decorative art objects, textiles Period costumes), products of various Sibiu guilds, weapons and armours, iron artefacts, glassware, coins, banknotes, Romanian and foreign medals and decorations, etc. The permanent exhibition circuit comprises the following collections: prehistorical archaeology and ancient history 8,177 pieces, mediaeval objects collection 9,669 pieces (mediaeval archaeology 647 pieces, guilds products 1,690 pieces, textile products 1,500 pieces, science and technology items 90 pieces, weapons and armours 1,880 pieces, honour decorations and medals 239 pieces, glassware and faience

Dei modest ca dimensiuni las totui o impresie de monumentalitate. Este situat pe trei nivele (demisol, parter i etaj) i cuprindea iniial 16 ncperi (astzi, n urma recompartimentrii, cuprinde mai multe ncperi). Cldirea nu a avut niciodat o alt destinaie dect aceea pentru care a fost construit - sediu de muzeu.

In the spring of 1890 the Transylvanian Society for Natural Sciences in Sibiu, established in 1849, approached the issue of a building to shelter the collections. They asked for credits, public contributions and subscriptions, and in 1894 the building was ready. It is a construction bearing neo-Renaissance elements, designed by the Media architect Franz Maetz. Although small-sized, it gives an impression of monumentality. It stands on three storeys (semibasement, ground floor and upper floor and originally had 16 rooms (today it has more rooms, following partitioning). The building never housed any other institution but the museum. There never was any original collection, but a heterogeneous gathering of natural history items that lay the foundation for the subsequent great theme collections. Currently, the most important heritage divisions are the following: mineralogy, petrography, palaeontology, botany, zoology, documentary material (pictures, photographs, slides, documentary graphics). n 1963 a fost achiziionat colecia "Spiess", nsumnd 1.058 de piese.

The museum building was made at the end of the 19th century, and was inhabited by colonel August von Spiess, a former master in hunting of the Royal Court. The exhibits include hunting weapons and trophies (Spiess collection), poaching weapons, traps and snares, naturalized animals, photographs.

Muzeul Civilizaiei Transilvane "ASTRA", nfiinat n anul 1993 pentru a reprezenta cultura i civilizaia popular transilvan n viziune interdisciplinar i plurietnic, este continuatorul patrimonial, programatic i structural-tematic al Muzeului "Asociaiunii" - primul muzeu "naional" al romnilor din Transilvania (inaugurat la 19 august 1905 i desfiinat, din considerente ideologice, n 1950). Din chiar momentul inaugurrii, muzeul i-a definit funciile sale moderne: conservativpatrimonial i instructiv-educaional. Apoi, muzeul s-a dezvoltat sub semnul vremurilor i mprejurrilor pe care acestea le-au impus, nregistrnd o continuitate fireasc, manifestat n preocuparea pentru creterea patrimoniului, pentru mbuntirea mijloacelor de expunere i eviden, pentru cunoaterea fenomenelor pe care el le ilustra. Dup 1990, Corneliu Bucur, cu un colectiv restrns de specialiti, a reuit s ntrerup ndelungatul exil al patrimoniului etnografic romnesc, organiznd Muzeul Civilizaiei Transilvane "ASTRA" ca un important segment al memoriei i biografiei naionale. O condiie indispensabil pentru nelegerea oportunitii conceperii proiectului tematic al Muzeului Civilizaiei Transilvane "ASTRA" ca muzeu interdisciplinar i plurietnic i nelegerea mecanismelor producerii interferenelor culturale, n condiiile convieuirii lor multiseculare, a constat din schimbarea paradigmei muzeale. Dintr-un muzeu etnografic clasic, cu expuneri de serii de obiecte, muzeul modern trebuie conceput ca un muzeu de istorie a civilizaiei, accentul trecnd dinspre factologic spre fenomenologic, spre relaionarea i conexiunea proceselor etnoculturale. Vizitatorul este invitat s caute i s descopere chipul unui ran complet, ce tie "mersul stelelor" dar i "mersul lumii". Muzeul Civilizaiei Transilvane "ASTRA" este, n primul rnd, trezorierul valorilor patrimoniale motenite de la Muzeul "Asociaiunii" i recuperate dup 1950. n registrele inventar exist 9.002 obiecte nregistrate sub sigla "A", mprite pe ase colecii: 6.523 broderii, 1.025 port-textile, 567 obiecte de cult, 539 lemn, os, fier, 330 ceramic i 18 ppui. Coleciile s-au mbogit, n ultima jumtate de secol, ajungnd astzi la 46 314 obiecte din care: 21.638 port-textile, 9.868 broderii, 7.137 ceramic, 3.938 obiecte de cult, 3.733 lemn, os, fier. It presents two permanent exhibitions: "the open air ethnographic museum" and "the monuments of architecture and folk technology". It illustrates virtually all the traditional crafts with four exhibition themes sectors. It has gathered the most complex collection of monuments of architecture and folk technology in Romania and a vast documentary-scientific and technical archive on the world of folk technology. A manual tool system, of an impressive typological variety, evidencing a permanence of life and material creation in this part of Europe covers almost all the traditional crafts. The category "monuments of folk technology" is outstanding by its wide range of themes of "the folk industry installations", having at the end of the exhibition four large folk industry complexes (originating in Oltenia, Muntenia and
Transylvania), and by an almost complete typology hard to find in a museum outside Romania. The collection of mills is a unique case, as the 33 cereal mills present all the power mill types known in the Euro-Asian space, which proves also the agrarian nature of the traditional civilization of the Romanian people. The monuments of rural architecture present a diversity of regional types. Folk art is illustrated both in the decoration of the interiors, and in the workshops, as the exhibits include textiles or pottery, wood or metal artefacts, amber objects or glassware, functional furniture or religious items. The museum heritage comprises 143 monuments, 346 constructions and over 20,000 functional inventory items, being the largest richest museum in Romania. This museum is first of all the repository of the heritage legacy of the "Association" Museum (established in 1905 and dismantled by a communist decree in 1950). Its heritage (moved to Brukenthal Museum in 1950) lay the foundation for the later "ASTRA" Museum of Transylvanian Civilization.

The archaeological excavations conducted in 1996 revealed that in the place of the current building there was a wooden house, dated on the basis of a coin from the reign of King Bela IV (1235-1270).

Both fronts, the one facing Piaa Mic and the other one towards Piaa Huet, with identical decoration, were restored by the end of 1997.
