About

The Harghita National Szekler Folk Ensemble was born in the most Eastern region of Transylvania, in Miercurea Ciuc.

Our company, the Harghita Ensemble has been functioning as a professional institution since 1990 continuing the work of the amateur ensemble founded in 1970 under a similar name.

Our primary goal has always been the exploration of our folk culture, living that culture and presenting, popularizing and handing it down in an authentic manner.

In our folklore programs that have always been built on authentic material – given our geographic position – Transylvania and the Szeklerland have been prominent, but our shows also present the entire Carpathian basin, going beyond the Eastern Carpathians to the Moldova Csangos. Our repertoire also comprises several dance performances.

It is our pleasure that our programs are sold out all over the settlements around Miercurea Ciuc, also among the Hungarians living in the diaspora, in small comunities as well as in large cities. Besides our regular home performances we have been able to display our traditions and represent the multiculturality of Romania, the Hungarian traditions, but also Transylvania, the Szeklerland and last but not least the community that has been maintaining us, Miercurea Ciuc, on international tours, festivals and events.

Besides stage work our institution has also been the initiator and organizer of important events: Assembly of Transylvanian Folk Violinists, the Day of One Thousand Szekler Girls, Csűrdöngölő – folk dance assembly for children and youth and Heritage – folk music and dance assembly of Mezőség. Dancers of our company assist and teach several children’s, youth and adult folk dance groups.

The maintainer of the ensemble is the Local Council of Miercurea Ciuc.

Borsec lies in a wide valley surrounded by the forested mountains of the Gurghiu, Bistrița, and Călimani ranges, at an altitude between 850 and 930 meters above sea level. It is accessible via National Road DN15 from Toplița, a route that connects Transylvania with Moldavia. The nearest train station is in Toplița, 27 km away. Nearby airports include Târgu Mureș (141 km), Cluj-Napoca (191 km), Bacău (190 km), and Iași (200 km). Thanks to its microclimate, fresh ozone-rich air, and its remarkable flora and fauna, Borsec is one of Romania’s most sought-after tourist destinations. Visitors are mainly drawn by the mineral waters, the Fontana Spa, drinking cures, the ski slope, the summer bobsled track, and the breathtaking natural beauty of the surrounding area. Emperor Franz Joseph once called Borsec mineral water “The Queen of Mineral Waters.” The town’s development and the large-scale commercialization of its mineral waters are linked to two Austrian citizens, Günther and Zimmethausen, who leased the area in 1806. They began bottling the mineral water in glass bottles of their own production and presenting it at various international fairs, from which they returned with diplomas, medals, and certificates. These, along with other period documents, can be viewed in the Mineral Water Museum.
