ASTRA National Museum Complex, National open-air museum in Dumbrava Forest, Sibiu, Romania

The ASTRA Museum Complex spans 96 hectares of forest land, featuring 300 historical buildings connected by 10 kilometers of walking paths.

Founded in 1905 by the Romanian cultural association ASTRA, the museum underwent substantial expansion and modernization after 1990 to preserve Romanian heritage.

The museum contains over 200,000 ethnographic objects, including windmills from Dobrudja, traditional homes, and workshops representing Romanian folk traditions.
