Muzeul de Artă Baia Mare (Colonia Pictorilor)

Mănăstirea Rohia

Rohia Monastery lies in Maramures county, near the town of Baia Mare, in a striking natural setting on a wooded hill in the Lapus Land area. The settlement, dedicated to Saint Parascheva, was founded in the early twentieth century and became known above all through its connection with the writer and theologian Nicolae Steinhardt, author of the Diary of Happiness, who lived here as a monk and librarian in the last part of his life. The monastery holds a valuable library, with numerous rare books, and preserves the cell in which Steinhardt lived, which has become a place of literary and spiritual pilgrimage. The quiet setting, the surrounding forest and the view over the hills of Maramures give the place an atmosphere of deep contemplation. Rohia is a sought-after destination for pilgrims, but also for lovers of culture who wish to discover the memory of an important Romanian thinker.

Muzeul Județean de Mineralogie Baia Mare

The County Museum of Mineralogy in Baia Mare holds one of the most valuable mineral collections in Europe, gathered in the heart of a region with a long mining tradition. The Maramureș area has been worked for gold, silver, lead, and other metals since ancient times, and the wealth of its underground is reflected in the museum's cases. The pride of the collection is the so-called mine flowers, spectacular crystal clusters formed in cavities deep within the galleries, unique in size and beauty. The collection includes thousands of samples of sulphides, quartz, calcite, and other species, many coming from mines in the region that are now closed. The exhibition also explains the history of local mining, with tools, maps, and accounts of the hard work underground. For lovers of earth sciences and for families, the museum offers an accessible journey into the world of crystals. Allow enough time to admire the detail of each display case.
