Description of Our Community: Radauti is a small city in the northern part of Romania. It has about 25000 citizens of different ethnicities, religions, cultures and political ideas. This region has been under many occupations, therefore these regions left a mark over these places. Not to be forgotten is the region where we live in: Bukovina. This region has its location in 3 countries: Romania, Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova. Even so, this region is a like a whole and we have all bonded with each other. Near Radauti you can find the village Cacica. Cacica (Polish: Kaczyka) is a commune located in Suceava County, Romania. The beginnings of Cacica date back to the end of the 17th century, but it was not until 1782 when the emperor Joseph II ordered the search for salt in Bucovina. At the salt springs, small salt mines were created in a few places - among others in the valley called Cacica. The purest rock salt in the world (99.8% purity) was discovered here, at a depth of 28.5 m. In 1791, a big salt mine was opened. From now on, Cacica will have satisfied the salt demand for the whole of Bucovina. We chose this village because it offers a great diversity of architecture, which corresponds to the different ethnic groups that inhabit Cacica.
Project Description: The purpose of our project is to bring closer the people from our community and the tourists to the sacred life, the culture and to raise the appreciation for these places. We have to be aware that the evolution of population in this area had a great impact on the architecture, as every new ethnic group has brought along customs and traditions, its very specific architectural style. We tried to show little differences between the details that have changed with the passage of time. We would wish to show you the beauty of our area and to give you an opportunity to discover Bucovina just as it is.
