What it feels like
Quiet halls, curated objects, the smell of old wood and paper. Time slowed down by design.
Ip is the site of the September 1940 massacre in which Horthyist troops killed 158 Romanian inhabitants of the village. The monument and the small memorial museum are the only testimonies to the largest massacre of civilians in Romania in the Second World War, documented but little known.
