Transylvanian Heritage House Foundation

About

The Transylvanian House of Traditions Foundation (EHH) is an organization based in Târgu Mureș (Marosvásárhely), Romania, dedicated to the preservation, transmission, and revitalization of the Hungarian, Romani and Romanian folk culture of Transylvania and the Carpathian Basin.

Our foundation is a strategic partner of the Hungarian Heritage House, based in Budapest. While we operate in close collaboration, we also function as an independent entity. Our headquarters is located in Târgu Mureș, with regional offices in Cluj-Napoca, Odorheiu Secuiesc, and Miercurea Ciuc.
The board of directors consists of nine members, including prominent figures dedicated to safeguarding Transylvanian heritage and traditions, as well as representatives from the Sapientia Foundation.

To achieve our mission, we work alongside 12 strategic partners—other non-governmental organizations that share our commitment to preserving Hungarian cultural heritage. As we implement our vision, the regional offices often initiate independent projects, while all four branches also collaborate to develop joint programs.

Transylvania, a multicultural region, is a unique melting pot of Hungarian, Romanian, Romani, Saxon, and other traditions, where folk music, folk dance, and folk crafts remain a living practice to this day. Our mission is to research and document this uniquely rich tangible and intangible heritage, making it accessible to all generations using modern tools.

To offer someone help means to strengthen them in their sense of purpose in life. Our association aims to support those who, in a culture of hopelessness, have lost themselves, their identity, and their roots in God and hope. Our goal is to nurture the inner life of individuals and support self-awareness and spiritual growth among both young people and adults. In this way, we are committed to spreading and building a culture of life. “To accept help from someone means to recognize the limits of our humanity.”
