Ethnography and Folklore
About This Museum
Tucked away on a quiet street in Tulcea, the gateway to the Danube Delta, the Museum of Ethnography and Folklore feels like a step into a different era. Inside, the air is thick with the scent of old wood and woven textiles, telling stories of a life shaped by the river. You won't find sterile glass boxes here; instead, vibrant traditional costumes hang as if waiting for a festival to begin. It’s a deeply personal and immersive journey through the soul of the Dobrogea region.
