Colectia Etnografica "Felicia si Dionizie Olenici"

About

This venue has begun as a family idea of preserving the traditional values. Over the time Dionizie and Felicia Olenici managed to collect various traditional items which were part of the traditional household belongings. Nowadays it is a private collection of traditional costumes which displays also a traditional reconstructed house and a small private planetarium catered by Dimitrie Olenici. The ethnography collection “Dionizie and Felicia Olenici” began to be organised from the year 2000. It includes over 500 objects from the surrounding places of Horodnic de Jos village. In the collection there are a few items also from the neighbouring villages: Bădeuți, Brodina, Comanesti, etc. The collection of ethnography is carried out in parallel with the planetarium and the astronomical observatory private arranged by prof. Dimitrie Olenici, who also uses to host an astronomical event during the summer.
