Casa-Muzeu Aleksei Mateevici
Memorial to the poet of "Our Language," in his birth village of Căinari
Free guided tour through the birth house of the poet Mateevici
You can skip it unless you're specifically into Romanian cultural history — the birthplace of poet Mateevici, with a guided tour, in the village of Căinari. For locals it carries real weight.
The Aleksei Mateevici Memorial House preserves the legacy of the author of Moldova's national anthem "Limba noastră," in Căinari, the village where the poet-priest was born in 1888. Tours are guided (free), and the director Mrs. Rotari is renowned for making children fall in love with poetry. You'll see personal items, manuscripts, photographs, and period furniture. The drive to Căinari (~60 km southeast of Chișinău) is itself an experience — a quiet village, rural landscapes, a perfect cultural-weekend stop.

I often came there with my child and talked about this Father and poet! Now he studies in the high school that bears his name and is proud of it! He tells me ma…”
“It is a very visited location lately.”

- Far from Chișinău
