Muzeul de Istorie și Etnografie · Slobozia Mare
Bulgarian-Moldovan village museum — costumes, tools, Mocănașii tradition (UNESCO 2013).
Self-guided tour ending with the Mocănașii video room.
Good especially before or after a Mocănașii ensemble concert — a Bulgarian-Moldovan village museum with costumes, tools and the local tradition.
The Slobozia Mare museum documents the history of the mixed Bulgarian-Moldovan community in the area: traditional costumes (women wear embroidered fote with typical Bulgarian geometric motifs), agricultural tools, household ceramics. Star room: dedicated to the Mocănașii folk ensemble, UNESCO-listed in 2013 — see costumes, instruments, and video recordings of concerts. Ideally combine the visit with an ensemble event (summer-autumn).
