Exhibition Marking Anniversary of Timisoara Revolution Opens at Hungarian National Museum

• 12 Dec 2024 6:54 AM

On display until 15 January 2025. An exhibition dubbed Timisoara 1989, commemorating the anniversary of Romania’s democratic revolution, opened at the Hungarian National Museum.

Speaking at the exhibition’s opening, Janos Nagy, the leading state secretary at the Prime Minister's Office, said that 35 years ago Romania’s freedom "started from a small parish" in Timisoara (Temesvar).

He said Laszlo Tokes and the Timisoara rebels had become "examples of courage and heroism".

"In 1989 two peoples, two nations, fought for freedom and central Europe together," Nagy said.

The exhibition, which features 21 photography tableaux, 90 contemporary photo reproductions and enlargements of 12 contemporary documents, runs until Jan 15.
