What you need to know
- Most houses open Wed-Sun, so on Mondays and Tuesdays you walk the grounds at half price but see few interiors
- Four entrance gates, two on Kiseleff Road and two from Herăstrău Park, though the park-side gates keep shorter hours
- Last tickets sold early, an hour before closing, so in winter arrive by 4pm
About
An open-air village on the shore of Lake Herăstrău, made of 62 farmsteads moved here from regions across Romania: 40 houses, three churches and 15 craft workshops and technical installations, from the 17th to the early 20th century.
Kids walk 9 hectares of lanes, look into furnished peasant homes and compare gates and roofs between regions. The museum also hosts a folk craftsmen's fair and a winter customs festival.
