Night of Museums
La Nuit des Musées | Noaptea Muzeelor
14 May 2011
The European Night of Museums is a successful event inaugurated by the French Ministry of Culture and Communication and already at the 7th year.
This year its official patrons are the Secretary General of the Council of Europe and UNESCO, which joined Museums’ Night in 2009.
The Night of Museums is the nocturnal twin of the International Day of Museums, organized by the International Council of Museums (ICOM) on the 18th of May, 2011. This is the first year when the ICOM has been an official patron of The Night of Museums.
The National Network of Romanian Museums is the official partner of the international event and supports it by consistently promoting activities organized by the Romanian museums, especially through the site www.noapteamuzeelor.ro
About 3.000 European museums are celebrating the event in 2011. For further details please visit
