Muzeul Etnografic Rimetea

The Ethnographic Museum of Rimetea lies in one of the most beautiful villages in Transylvania, a place of white houses and red roofs set at the foot of the Piatra Secuiului massif. The museum's collection illustrates the traditional life of the local Hungarian community, with an emphasis on the occupations of mining and ironworking that shaped the history of the place. Visitors discover tools, household objects, costumes and pieces of furniture that recreate the atmosphere of a household of former times.

The village itself, protected as a heritage ensemble, is an open-air exhibition with its unified and picturesque architecture. The museum thus rounds out the experience of a visit to Rimetea, where the mountain landscape and tradition blend harmoniously. The place is prized by those interested in ethnography and vernacular architecture; checking the opening schedule is recommended.
