About

Lupeni is the native village of the great writer of the Szeklers, Tamási Áron. The village follows the Nicăului de Sus valley, on the two banks of the river, at the altitude of 540-580 m.

The memorial house, the monument dedicated to the writer, as well as the writer's grave are there.

The memorial house and birthplace of the writer is an old building, dating back over 150 years. It was built of carved wood, and the roof was made of shingles. Tamási Áron was born in this house on 19 September 1897. Inaugurated on 24 September 1972, the memorial house displays furniture, personal objects, manuscripts, works, letters, and photographs of the writer.

The tomb of the famous writer is on the Western edge of the village, behind the Roman Catholic church and the cemetery, in a beautiful park full of flowers.

The Tamási Monument - the work of the sculptor Szervátiusz Jenő and his son, Tibor (1972-1974), is carved from a rock 3 meters high, 1 m wide, weighing 8 tons, brought here from Mount Harghita. The monument features characters from Tamási's works.

In order to make the rich ethnographic material accessible to the public, a building was raised in the school’s courtyard.

The Borsos Miklós Memorial House, which has been operating since 2002, is located on the main road to the ancient Borsos family estate, at No. 1521. The property, built in 1936, was auctioned in the late 1990s. It was bought by the Borsos Miklós Művészetétt Alapítvány Foundation, with the kindness of Borsos Miklós's widow, Kéry Ilona. On the right side of the house, there are three rooms where Borsos Miklós's works are displayed, and the memorial room in which his tools and personal objects are exhibited. The collection contains original works (mostly not shown in other exhibitions), drawings, statuettes, medals. The memorial room displays his personal objects, the clothes he worked in, his favorite tools, even the tool chest decorated with tulips taken by his father from Ciumani, as well as his manuscripts, books illustrated by him, and valuable copies from his personal library.
