For this edition of the UISPP Congress, we proposed to the participants that the Closing Event of the congress take place in what the people of Timisoara call „the village on the edge of the city”, that is, the Banat Village Museum. Through the cultural heritage owned and presented to the visiting public, the Banat Village Museum constitutes an open page in the history of Banat, a testimony of the traditional popular civilization of the Romanians and national minorities in this province, constituting a harmonious inter-ethnic dialogue. Without having to travel through the villages of Banat, in a few hours you can see in the Banat Village Museum everything that is more characteristic of the civilization and traditional culture of western Romania.
The participants who wish to take part in the Gala Dinner will be picked up by buses at 5:30 – 5:40 pm in front of the West University of Timisoara. The return to the city can be done on your own or by means of the buses provided by the organizers, the last transport being at 10:30 pm. Traditional Romanian cuisine will be served, but we will also have a vegetarian menu. We will have an open bar based on wine, beer or schnapps.Banat Village Museum
