Rozalinda POSEA: The Memorial Museums Situation after the 1990’s In Romania … 421
The Association Revolution Memorial 16th-22nd December 1989 was born in 26th of
April 1990 with the statutory purpose to horn the memory of the victims of the repression
from the Romanian Revolution in December 1989. From 1990 until 1999, the Association
realised a memorial complex in the Heroes Cemetery of Timişoara, and 12 monuments,
built in city in the repression area from December 1989. Starting with 1996, inside the
Memorial is operating the Researching and Public Information Centre on the Revolution
from December 1989.
The City Hall of Timişoara offered for the association an immobile in the civic centre of
the city. It’s about a building from the 18th Century in baroque style, a monument
building. The construction was in an advanced state of decay, reason for what it has been
necessarily to make some important act of consolidation arrangements, which they hadn’t
been finished yet.
POST SCRIPTUM
Today, even if more than 22 years had passed from the Revolution of December an
1989, in Romania there isn’t any other museal institution to illustrate from an historical
point of view, the period of more than over 40 years of communism regime in the
conditions in which the communism regime made a large number of victims in the
Romanian Gulag.
