Transylvania (center region of
Romania)
Romanians,
Hungarians, Germans (Saxons),
Roma

ethnical
populations have been living
together
for
centuries,
developing a distinct material

unique in Europe.

one of the few
Romanian villages located in
the Hârtibaciului plateau, the

most likely to be depopulated area of the Sibiu
county, the local patrimony
is endangered after the
Saxons left Romania, their
households were taken by
Roma population. The Roma
people don’t have in their
culture the concept of
patrimony.

Eco-museum Logo : Explore a
village and discover centuries
old architecture ...:
The Saxon village located in the
southern part of Transylvania is
very easy to be recognized, the
houses are sticked together through
their vaulted gates, each house
resembling a castle. This way of
building was used because there was
a permanent invasion and war threat
in the area, this generating also a
prudent way of living and a specific
unrest. This architecture was used
also in genuine Romanian villages (
Gura Rîului, Sălişte, Tilişca, etc).

Logo ecomuzeu: ... and
traditional ways of life
By visiting the households located
in Sibiu area the tourists are able to
experience the traditional way of
life with sustainable economic
development through the support of
agriculture (reviving the crops that
characterized the area - vineyards on
the Tarnava River, bio products,
according to European standards), of
animal
breeding
(through
the
development of competitive channels)
and through reviving the traditional
rural occupations.
