The site is in Rumanian — so here’s a Google Translation of the article:
The Siret History Museum will have, after the rehabilitation, a Memorial of the Holocaust of the Jews in Bukovina. The president of Suceava County Council, Gheorghe Flutur, announced on Friday at a press conference that the project of rehabilitation and modernization of the museum in Siret was accepted for funding with European money, being in the pre-contracting stage. According to the project, after the modernization the museum will also have the Memorial mentioned. "It will be an extraordinary attraction, with everything we have there. In Siret there are also the oldest Jewish cemeteries in Romania and I think this section, related to the history of the Jews in Bukovina, is a natural thing for the true history of this area. It is natural to find a place in Siret, "said President Flutur.
The amount allocated to the project financed through the Regional Operational Program for the Siret History Museum is 7.7 million lei with VAT, the completion period being 24 months.
At this moment, work is being done to complete the documentation with different documents necessary for the contracting, and the Suceava County Council intends to start the procurement procedures for the construction works.
In parallel, after signing the financing contract, the Museum of Bukovina will have to start the museum-technical project; it exists as a theme, but must be completed with the technical details.
The announcement of the president Gheorghe Flutur regarding the Siret museum was in the context of the attribution, by the Government, to the History Museum in Suceava of the title of "museum of national importance".
The President of the CJ said that the Government's response to the request to receive this appointment is a natural one, especially after, two years ago, due to the Museum of History and the Citadel of Suceava the city of Suceava received the title of European Destination of Excellence in Brussels. Now "the Romanian Government has also come to certify the role of this museum and the Chair Citadel because some investments have been made and it was natural."
At the same time, Flutur expressed the hope that the museum will not only remain with the title of national museum "as we have tourist resorts of local interest", but that this will materialize in benefits such as eligibility or additional points when evaluating projects funded. governmental or European. "If Pojorâta or Sucevita are tourist resorts and you put a signboard at the entrance and you have no other advantage, it seems to me to be an image action. I would like to feel it's a national museum. The museum is honoring Romania, it is from the national panoply, we can always receive here a state visit or dignitaries because they have what to see at the Bukovina Museum, but we want to be eligible for funding. The Bucovina Museum would like to expand with the Art Museum and the History Museum in Siret, where there will be a section with the history of the Jews in Bucovina. We would like for these points to take into account the Government or the governments that are coming, in order to be funded, "said Suceava County Council President Gheorghe Flutur.
