THE IPOTEȘTI MEMORIAL - 'MIHAI EMINESCU' NATIONAL CENTER FOR STUDIES Ipotești is a geographical symbol of Romanian national culture, being the birthplace of the poet Mihai Eminescu. He was born in the Eminovici family on January 15, 1850. Eminescu's childhood home is the main focus of the Ipotești Memorial. Outside, you can see the old village church and Eminovici's family church, next to which are the graves of the poet's parents and two of his brothers. https://muzeedelasat.ro/muzee/memorialul-ipotesti-centrul-national-de-studii-mihai-eminescu/?lang=en

'ION ROATĂ' MEMORIAL HOUSE Right in the center of the village, under an old and tall walnut tree, you can easily find the house in which, in 1806, deputy Moș Ion Roată was born. It is a cottage, built with clay, constructed with beams and wooden ropes. On 24 January, 1959, it was resettled from Gura Văii village and transformed into a museum. Inside the rooms, there is peasant furniture, the private and household items that belonged to Ion Roată, which impose a powerful mark to the exhibition. There are also photos and documents about Ion Roată's life and his fight as deputy in the Ad-hoc Assembly of Moldavia. https://muzeedelasat.ro/muzee/casa-memoriala-ion-roata/?lang=en

Braşoveanca (Braşov, Transylvania, Romania) One of the most popular dances today in the area of Ţara Bârsei (southeastern Transylvania) is called Braşoveanca. It is also danced in some areas of Moldavia, Dobrogea, Oltenia and just about everywhere in Romania. The origin of Braşoveanca is unclear, and there are a number of theories about it. Braşoveanca means "the dance of the city of Braşov." In the past, Braşov residents called it Săseasca or "the dance of the Saxons"(Germans). The German ethnic community had a large part in shaping the character, history, culture and architecture of Braşov. It was in the early 13th century that the SaxonsGermans from the Mosel-Rhine Valley- colonized the region of Braşov, where a large Romanian community lived. The founding of the city itself goes back to medieval times. A written document dated 1235 is the first to mention the city, under the name Corona, and it was located where the famous Black Church is now. Subsequently the city changed names several times: Brasco, Brasso, Stephanopolis, Kronstadt and Braşov. The last two names were the most popular. Traces of the dance are found in Germany, of course, and also in Ukraine. The same music appears in Poland, in and around Krakow, with the name Krakowiaczek Jeden ("man from Krakow"). Braşoveanca is a couple dance with variations, some of whichincluding the one presented hereare mixers, where the dancers change partners. Mixers are very rare in the Romanian repertoire. This featurechanging partnerstogether with the melody, lead us to believe that this dance is an "adopted child" among Romanian dances. Nonetheless, if you are lucky enough to visit Braşov and get invited to a popular festivity, the residents will ask you to join in their typical dances, and Braşoveanca is sure to be one of them.
