Summary/Abstract: The study, as part of the preparatory research of the region in the Open-air Museum of Ethnography, is a short summary of the ideas relating to a building plot from Hétfalu in Transylvania. The planned exhibition is not the scene and tool of the transmission of static knowledge but it provides the opportunity of a dynamic discourse relating to existing knowledge. Along the topic of traffic the presentation of the culture in Hétfalu is appropriate to answer recent questions such as identity preserved in a multiethnical environment or the cultural marks sustained even in a diaspora which, in our present day, can carry serious conflicts.
