Culture

DESPRE MaramuresThe culture of Maramures is famous for its local specificity. The source of this original culture stands in the people’s attitude, as well as in the relative geographical isolation – the Northern bend of the Carpathians, an area surrounded by mountains with untouched forests .The ethnographic elements of the costumes, pottery, decorations and wood carving technique lead to the conclusion that a tribe of Dacians are the ancestors of those people.

The Maramures people had been led by local Romanian nobility, which in time was integrated in the peasants families; thus a new class of people appeared, free of obligations and duties. Their freedom, determined them to preserve and proudly promote their own values in construction, clothing, art and language. The first translations of religious texts in Romanian were made here, under the guidance of local nobles.

Maramures old country / with people without pair

IMG_7402Maramures is a country full of legends, rather you could say it is a land of story. Country Maramures is an area full of symbols, the link load we benefit, urging us to meditation and analogy. And the symbol as a sign of universal recognition, has a particular significance by the dominance of color, the wood and the center of the world idea, here, where he turned “living museum in the heart of Europe”, which is called Maramures, the bridge of light to which should be directed Romanian tourism. And signs of the times, Dear, look them in the traditions and impulses reborn other contemporary Maramures coordinates.

Closed between the mountains and did not want to hang anybody, Maramures have got over the times, to forge themselves from plates of who ate and clothes they put them to homes in which went live and churches that worshiped. In Maramures, today there are villages in which people take pride that they have kept together all the old crafts.
And because we are in the country, rather surprised that we were first of these crafts and wood carving. Beyond the practice of wood in Maramures is a way of expressing beauty. True, not every master has ventured its radical churches and monumental gates. But many knew and know how to carve tools, furniture, cases of dowry, domestic objects.
Over all, wood carving adorns the heads of the houses beams, doors and window frames, pillars gates.

These men have descended from the mountains and wood gave way, as only they knew. And as a reward seemed to care that he received a wood has remained firmly together, it has been the roof and protector. And pride when bystanders come and wondering the beauty and simplicity.
Even if the Maramures Country began to rise and modern construction, many peasants here remain faithful to wood. That only the wooden houses are those good and rest and loved.

Merry Cemetery

cimitirul vesel 5cimitir_vesel-sapanta (12) (web)Sapanta Village, is famous worldwide for the orginal “Merry Cemetery” you are hosting. A different cemetery, with crosses painted in vivid colors that reigns over a particular blue, which long has the name of places: Blue Cemetery. Cemetery name comes from the many crosses and the colorful and satirical poems which are poems inscription on the crosses. Legend says the cheerful attitude in the face of death is usually one of the Dacians rituals who believed in eternal life and death for them was just passing to another world. They finally saw death as a tragic but as a chance to meet Zamolxe supreme god. Cemetery dates from the mid 1930s and is popular artist Stan Ion Patras, sculptor, painter and poet at the same time. Creativity’s of Patras revealed and celebrated this monumental masterpiece. More than 50 years the artist has created hundreds of crosses, wooden inscription in characteristic style. After his death in 1977 his work was continued by his disciple Dumitru Pop Tincu. The material used for the cross is oak which is the inscription by hand after it was cut and dry. At the top of every cross there is a baso-relief with scenes from the life of the deceased. The scenes are simple and I might even say naive style but without the past life of the village residents, present a relevant aspect of everyone’s life. They show women working with wool, weaving mats or making bread, men who chop wood or earth country, shepherds with their flocks, wood workers, musicians and many other occupations. Their drawings and poems Stan Ioan Dumitru and Pop Tincu Patrae and managed to recreate an entire village and gave people a second life after death. More than 800 painted crosses constitute a vast archive that preserve the history of the inhabitants of the Cemetery.
