About

Located in the immediate vicinity of the Ali-Gazi-Pasa Glass, the Panaghia House is built in the architectural style of the old Babadag.
The oriental art exhibition organized in Casa Panaghia presents pieces belonging to the traditional folk art of the Turks and Tatars of Dobrogea, but also pieces belonging to oriental art made in manufactures and, later, industrially.

The folk art of the Turks and Tatars of Dobrogea (fabrics, embroideries, clothing, ornaments, copper vessels for everyday use and for various ceremonies) reflects its oriental origins. Certain features of this art reveal, however, interference with the art of the autochthonous population of the Balkan Peninsula and Dobrogea.

The typically oriental ornamental motifs: the carnation, the cypress, the hyacinth, the pomegranate fruit, etc., complemented by the gold and silver metallic thread, are combined in chromatic and decorative compositions of great aesthetic value.

It is worth stopping and visiting this place. The visit fee is 10 lei/adult and 5 lei/pupil/student/pensioner. The museum can be visited from Wednesday to Thursday, between 10:00 and 18:00.
