Sibiu - European Capital of Culture 2007

17 January 2007

Sibiu 2007 represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity for a Romanian city to host the European Capital of Culture designation. Sibiu/Hermannstadt as European Capital of Culture in 2007 aims at opening gates through which the city’s rich cultural landscape and diverse life will meet that of Europe. The Ministries of Culture from Luxembourg and Romania agreed in 2000 to cooperate in the cultural field and the cooperation engagement was renewed in 2002 and 2004 and enriched with the agreement of sharing the role of European Capital of Culture in 2007. This that the partnership between Luxembourg and Sibiu/Hermannstadt has a profound basis not only in the history but also in the present.
