Crama Balla Geza

Crama Balla Geza, at Ghioroc in the Miniș-Măderat region near Arad, is known for its vines on stone terraces — a distinctive terroir where volcanic rock stores heat and gives wines with minerality and structure. Winemaker Geza Balla works the native Cadarcă, Arad's historic red once served at the courts of Vienna, alongside Fetească Neagră, Furmint and international grapes, in ranges such as Stone Wine. The wines have won numerous awards and put Miniș back on the map of good wine. The estate welcomes visitors for tastings and tours among the hillside vines, near the western border. It's an excellent stop for anyone entering the country from Hungary or exploring the west, with a red wine of old tradition.

Wine Princess

Wine Princess is a family winery in the Miniș region near Arad, carrying forward the west's tradition of quality reds with a modern, well-kept touch. It works the native Cadarcă alongside Cabernet, Merlot and whites such as Mustoasă de Măderat, in balanced, fruity, accessible wines. In a discreet region with an old winegrowing history — Miniș Kadarka once reached Vienna — the winery helps rediscover the potential of the place. The estate welcomes visitors for tastings in a personal, small-winery atmosphere, where you receive the wine from the hands of those who make it. It's a warm stop for anyone exploring Crișana and the west, within easy reach of Arad.

Teatrul Clasic Ioan Slavici

The Ioan Slavici Classical Theatre in Arad is one of the oldest theatrical institutions in Romania, with a history reaching back to the middle of the nineteenth century. The imposing building in the town centre, raised in a classicist style, was conceived as a house of culture for the multi-ethnic community of Arad, where over time performances were given in several languages. The elegant hall, with boxes and period decoration, has hosted many premieres and tours by great artists. The institution bears the name of the writer Ioan Slavici, one of the classics of Romanian literature, who came from the Arad area. Today the theatre continues a rich stage activity, showcasing both the classical repertoire and contemporary works. The façade and interior are an example of nineteenth-century civil architecture. Visitors can admire the building and choose a performance from the season. It is advisable to check the schedule and how to obtain tickets.
