The Dobrudzha Bridal Room Is Taking Shape – We Are Looking for More Objects and Stories

At the State Cultural Institute “Cultural Center The Palace” - Balchik, we are currently working on a new exhibition - “The Dobrudzha Bridal Room”, which will present urban domestic life in Southern Dobrudzha during the 1930s and 1940s.

The arrangement of the space has already begun, and the first donations have arrived – small yet deeply personal items that preserve the spirit of the time and the atmosphere of a lived-in home.

We are now continuing our search for objects that can further enrich this environment.

We are looking for:
– furniture (dressers, beds, bedside tables, lighting fixtures)
– textiles (woven rugs, carpets)
– clothing and accessories (men’s and women’s, including wedding elements)
– household and decorative items (glassware, tableware, home accessories)
– small everyday objects

If you have items from this period that you keep but no longer use or find a place for in your home, we would be glad to hear from you. Both donations and temporary loans are possible.

We are also particularly interested in old family photographs from the period. If you prefer, these can be provided for digitalization only, without donating the originals.

With your support, we aim to create a space that does not simply display objects, but tells the story of the life, taste, and aspirations of a Dobrudzha family.
