Work on Romania’s first living museum to be resumed this spring

The construction work at the Tecsesti Living Museum, the first such museum in Romania, will be resumed this spring, as the project managed to raise the necessary EUR 6,000 via a fundraising campaign carried out in February. When the fundraising campaign kicked off, the museum was functional at a rate of 30%. The work dedicated to finishing the Neolithic sector of the Living Museum will be resumed in May this year. Craftsmen and volunteers will work in this sector, reproducing circular and square Neolithic houses with a wooden structure, walls made of clay, and thatched roofs. “The Neolithic sector of the museum will be fully functional this summer, ready to accommodate those who contributed to its construction,” said Ionut Onea, president of the Groove ON Association. The Living Museum from Tecsesti is located in an isolated village in the Apuseni Mountains. The project is developed by the Groove ON Association, together with Art&Craft and with BCR as an official partner. The special thing about it is that it offers people the chance to live in a space that reconstructs the history of the land, from its origins to the present. Read more about it here.
