Ethnography
Collection(s):

The museum of Saxon civilization in northern Transylvania, the "Saxon House" emerged from the collection of items belonging to Ion Rusu (known under the name of 'Museum under Gate'). It is a full homestead - house, shed, stables - bearing the Saxon specificity in the architecture of the house, in the setting and largeness of the annexes. The courtyard, paved with river stones, keeps the name of the owner and the year when the homestead was built. Inside the house and the homestead there are on display Saxon artefacts in a traditionally partitioned space. The visitor has the opportunity to see Saxon furniture and interior fabrics, a stove, household utensils etc. The sheds and stab...les (two each) give the visitor the opportunity to find out the partitioning of the spaces, and the traditional tools and equipment.
