Birthed in 1936 by Dimitri Gusti along with other noted Romanian personalities, this life-sized museum lies nestled in the very heart of by Cris Coman bustling Bucharest.

Kiseleff 28-30, Sector 1, Bucharest Arcul de Triumf "Symbolic Landmark" Built to commemorate the independence of Romania, this striking landmark draws scores of visitors owing to its spectacular architecture. Featuring a resemblance to the famous attraction in France, Arcul de Triumf is nevertheless imbued with a charm of its own which never fails to dazzle. by Ovidiu Maricas romaniatourism.com/bucharest.html Șoseaua Kiseleff, Bucharest Altstadt von Bukarest "Bucharest's Trendy Old Town" The historic heart of the 'Paris of the East', Old Town Bucharest is characterized by a quaint ragtag of turn-of-the-century architecture, pre- war monumental remnants that are reminiscent of the city's glorious past, and a zealous mix of trendy bars, cafes, restaurants and shops that line neatly cobbled pathways. Popularly known as Centru Vechi, legend by Tiia Monto suggests that the origin of Bucharest's nostalgic Old Town dates back to the 1300s, when Bucur the Shepherd constructed a church on the Dâmboviţa River's eastern bank. From here, the city began to flourish as a merchant town in the years that followed. Today, the Lipscani Lane, a commercial thoroughfare in the Middle Ages slices through the heart of this historic neighborhood, its early trading history replaced by an upmarket shopping zone that houses global brands. Old Town, Bucharest National Museum of the Romanian Peasant "History on Display" Housed inside a majestic Neo-Romanian building, this extensive museum is one of the most prominent cultural institutions in Romania. Presenting a treasury of items chronicling the history of Romania’s peasant society, the museum rebuilt itself after being severely hit by the Mineriads of June by Britchi Mirela 1990. Here is where artifacts ensconced in glass casings lie cradled under rounded archways, majestic pillars and winding white stairways. Tracing the life and times of Romania's peasants across regions and timelines, this museum is well-enclosed in mellow mustard walls and white lace curtains which instantly lend it a cozy, inviting aura. Mundane items which once belonged to ancient peasants have now found their way as moving memorabilia into the crevices of this museum, some of which include vibrantly-embroidered garments, elegantly-woven mats, ceramic vessels, ornaments, rustic, wooden furniture and religious paintings. Upheld by the country’s Ministry of Culture, this museum has also been honored with the ‘European Museum of the Year’ Award in 1996. +40 21 317 9661 www.muzeultaranuluirom info@muzeultaranuluiroma Șoseaua Pavel Dimitrievici an.ro/ n.ro Kiseleff 3, Sector 1, Bucharest National Museum of Art of Romania "Finest Collection of Art" Located in the historic quarter of the city inside the Royal Palace, Muzeul National de Arta comprises of three art galleries.

Permeated with lovely pastel hues complemented by gilded undertones, this opulent palace shelters rooms which are richly-ornamented with mosaics, luminescent by Tim Adams chandeliers, wallpapers, floral upholstery and paintings by revered Romanian artists. Built between 1970-1971, the palace draws from an amalgam of architectural styles including Baroque, Neo-Classical and Renaissance. Having turned to shambles in the wake of the end of Romania’s Communist regime, the Spring Palace was beautifully resurrected over time, standing today as a striking testimony to the royal heritage of Romania. Fronted gracefully by well-pruned lawns dotted with vibrant blooms, ‘Ceaușescu Palace’, is, indubitably, one of the prized possessions of the country. +40 213 18 0989 casaceausescu.ro/?page_i [email protected] Bulevardul Primaverii 50, d=3403&lang=en Bucharest Cotroceni Palace "Royal Residence in Bucharest" One of the most-coveted landmarks of Bucharest, the courtly Cotroceni Palace is the official seat of the President of Romania. Originally built as a palace for King Carol I, it has undergone many renovations and expansions to become what it is today. Deeply entrenched in a long- standing history, the palace started as a monastery, post which it was by Rakoon under the clutches of the Socialist regime, as a result of which it still carries within its fabric elements of Socialist-influenced details like lamps and stone columns. The palace is now home to the elaborate National Cotroceni Museum, which, complete with lavishly-decorated halls (like the Hall of Honor) and rooms (like the Royal Dining Room), lends fascinating glimpses into the opulent time that once was. From history and archaeology to numismatics and decorative arts, the museum spans multiple disciplines, harboring extensive collections of thousands and thousands of objects. Furniture, ceramics, textiles, religious paintings and artworks crafted by revered Romanian painters are some of the memorabilia which reside here. Fronted by winding walkways and well- pruned gardens with tranquil features, Cotroceni Palace bears testimony to the historic heritage of Romania. +40 21 31 7310 www.tourism-bucharest.com/bucha Bulevardul Geniului 1, Bucharest rest-attractions/palaces-in- bucharest/cotroceni-palace.html Schließen Sie sich uns an bei: cityseeker.com Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen | DATENSCHUTZBESTIMMUNG | API | KONTAKT | Urheberrecht (COPYRIGHT) 2021 CITYSEEKER Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

Oral Traditions of Italo-Albanian Communities in Sicily and Calabria1 Oliver Gerlach Abstract: The main difference with respect to the Balkans is that Italo-Greek as well as Arbëresh communities had been rural throughout the centuries. Hence, the community itself did the job of the choir during Orthodox celebrations, which became only possible in certain communities belonging to two Archdioceses of the Byzantine rite: Lungro in Calabria and Piana degli Albanesi on Sicily. Within the catholic church they were allowed to celebrate the Greek rite, but this became possible due to a new law in church administration which existed since the 18th century. The question if there did really exist a continuous oral transmission since the arrival of Albanian emigrants during the last decades of the 15th century, and in as far they adapted to local customs of the Italo-Byzantine tradition which had survived around the Archimandritates in Italy, has not been an issue of historical research yet.

  • Romania Redivivus
    alexander clapp ROMANIA REDIVIVUS nce the badlands of neoliberal Europe, Romania has become its bustling frontier. A post-communist mafia state that was cast to the bottom of the European heap by opinion- makers sixteen years ago is now billed as the success story Oof eu expansion.1 Its growth rate at nearly 6 per cent is the highest on the continent, albeit boosted by fiscal largesse.2 In Bucharest more politicians have been put in jail for corruption over the past decade than have been convicted in the rest of Eastern Europe put together. Romania causes Brussels and Berlin almost none of the headaches inflicted by the Visegrád Group—Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia— which in 1993 declined to accept Romania as a peer and collectively entered the European Union three years before it. Romanians con- sistently rank among the most Europhile people in the Union.3 An anti-eu party has never appeared on a Romanian ballot, much less in the parliament. Scattered political appeals to unsavoury interwar traditions—Legionnairism, Greater Romanianism—attract fewer voters than do far-right movements across most of Western Europe. The two million Magyars of Transylvania, one of Europe’s largest minorities, have become a model for inter-ethnic relations after a time when the park benches of Cluj were gilded in the Romanian tricolore to remind every- one where they were. Indeed, perhaps the aptest symbol of Romania’s place in Europe today is the man who sits in the Presidential Palace of Cotroceni in Bucharest. Klaus Iohannis—a former physics teacher at a high school in Sibiu, once Hermannstadt—is an ethnic German head- ing a state that, a generation ago, was shipping hundreds of thousands of its ‘Saxons’ ‘back’ to Bonn at 4,000–10,000 Deutschmarks a head.

  • Furnizorii Palatului Cotroceni- (1895 - 1930)
    FURNIZORII PALATULUI COTROCENI- (1895 - 1930) Ștefania DINU Abstract: The suppliers of the Cotroceni Palace and of the princely, then royal family Ferdinand and Maria were both those who held the Royal Court supplier's certificate obtained since the reign of King Carol I, and suppliers who did not own (or who had not applied for the Royal Court's supplier patent), but who, by delivering good quality goods, became its consistent and constant suppliers. If sometimes it had a slightly charitable aspect, the title of supplier of the Royal Court sought to promote some specialists who presented social, professional and moral guarantees, being, in fact, an official recognition of their merits. Through this title, the royalty encouraged crafts, production, services, its possession being a good example to follow. The granting of the patents of royal suppliers took place after the proclamation of Romania as a Kingdom and of Prince Carol of Hohenzollern as King, under the name of Carol I of Romania, when the princely suppliers existing until that moment, became royal suppliers. The supplier's patent of the Royal Court, according to the regulations regarding the granting of this title, from 1893, 1901, 1907, 1914 and 1920 shows that it "can be conferred on craftsmen, industrialists and merchants who, through ability and morality and a reputation in their specialty ". The patent for "supplier of the Royal House" was personal and non-transferable and was handed over without discrimination of race and religion, both to Romanians and foreigners. Once granted, the patent gave the right to place the royal insignia next to the firm and could be withdrawn if the holder no longer fulfilled a series of conditions required by the regulations regarding the granting of this title.
