Francisc Nistor Ethnographic Museum of Maramureș
The Ethnographic Museum of Maramureș "Francisc Nistor" is located on Bogdan Vodă street no. 1 in Sighetu Marmației. The indoor exhibition showcases the rural culture of the region, from occupations and tools to traditional dress and festive customs. The collections bring together textiles, ceramics, household objects and fragments of traditional wooden architecture.
In the halls you can see carved pillars from Maramureș gates, icons on wood and glass, as well as seals used to mark the ritual bread. The pastoral section includes dishes and utensils used at the sheepfold, along with musical instruments. Other exhibits explain masked performances and the Viflaim nativity play. The circuit in the city center is distinct from the open-air Maramureșean Village Museum.
