Rumänien

You have no idea what to expect in Romania? Unfortunately, that’s the case for many people. But that can change. Join travel photographers Ruth and Jürgen as they venture into the solitude of the Carpathians, explore the magnificent cities and fortified churches of Transylvania, and discover the indescribable biodiversity of the Danube Delta. Find out why Romania’s territory expands a few meters eastward every year, where the heaviest building in the world stands, and why an undead vampire count still wreaks havoc in Transylvania to this day. Whether aboard Europe’s last steam-powered forest railway, chatting with Orthodox monks, or at a lively wedding in Maramureş, Ruth and Jürgen immerse themselves in the daily lives of the people of this hospitable country.
For 20 years now, the two of them have been returning time and again to the country where Ruth spent her childhood. And in doing so, they’re not only unearthing memories of Ruth’s family history, but also getting to know Romania anew together as time goes on.
After the talk, you’ll see Romania through different eyes.
