'Martisor-The Story of a Living Tradition: From Queen Marie to the Heart of Every One' exhibition opening
The exhibition 'Martisor - The Story of a Living Tradition: From Queen Marie to the Heart of Every One' will be opened at the National Museum of the Romanian Peasant on Wednesday.
According to a release from the organisers, the exhibition brings to light the history, symbols, and stories that make the martisor an essential element of Romanian cultural identity.
One of the most valuable highlights of the exhibition is the collection of royal martisoare from the personal collection of Anghel Georgian. This rare collection offers the public the opportunity to admire royal martisoare given and worn in noble and royal circles over the centuries.
A special moment is the presentation of the oldest known martisor in Romania, dated March 1, 1872, which reflects the documented beginnings of the tradition of giving martisoare in the forms we know today.
A special section of the exhibition is dedicated to Queen Marie, a symbol of love for the Romanian people and traditions.
The exhibition will be open to visitors from March 5 to March 23, Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. It will be closed on Mondays.
