Maramures is known for its woodwork.

“Cand ma gandesc la Maramures, la folclorul nostru si la felul întamplator în care am pastrat ceva din ce a fost, imi spun ca aceea ce stim si admiram noi (laolalta cu atatia straini) reprezinta poate numai resturile si firimiturile unui banchet al zeilor.”

Prayer for Peace

Lord Jesus Christ, who are called the Prince of Peace, who are yourself our peace and reconciliation, who so often said, “Peace to you,” grant us peace. Make all men and women witnesses of truth, justice, and brotherly love. Banish from their hearts whatever might endanger peace. Enlighten our rulers that they may guarantee and defend the great gift of peace. May all peoples on the earth become as brothers and sisters. May longed for peace blossom forth and reign always over us all.                                             

 – Pope John Paul II
