About the place

The museum was founded in 1974 and is run by Cisnădie town hall. The collection has textile manufacturing standards from 1834, wool-processing manuals from 1700–1900, an original loom and wool-teaselling tools. Products of the town's textile factory are also on show.

The national museum guide (cIMeC) gives opening hours Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 16:00, and weekends on request. Some visitors still found it closed during those hours, and others say someone from the tourist information centre opened it for them.

Good to know

  • Call ahead on 0269 563 141, as the posted hours are not always kept.
  • It is a few steps from the fortified church, so combine them in one walk.
  • At weekends it opens only by appointment.
