CROATIA - Mobility to Romania

As part of our project Common Heritage from Tradition to Future, we visited Romania in the period from April 24 to 28, 2023. The hosts welcomed us with an interesting program that presented all the richness of Romanian cultural heritage. We toured the city of Craiova, and were regular guests of the elementary school in Cruset. During the week, we had various workshops, such as making an interactive map of heritage under UNESCO protection, making clay objects, reconstruction of traditional houses, decorating clay plates with traditional motifs, etc. In the town of Tg. Jiu we also had the opportunity to enjoy the richness of Romanian folklore and follow a workshop of playing doina music under the guidance of maestro Stephan Popescu. It was also nice to see the works of Constantin Brancusi, a renowned Romanian sculptor. We relaxed on numerous green areas and many spring flowers. In a nutshell, an unforgettable week marked by the extraordinary hospitality of our hosts. On this occasion, we thank them once again.
