It is a project designed as a quasi-complete virtual gallery of this cultural treasure. The gallery is more than just an archive of images, it is a collection of over 850 photos with Ottoman pieces, traditional pieces, with old but also more recent images, postcards, video and audio recordings, all arranged thematically, in a circuit of moments, places, feelings, searches, desires, hopes, briefly everything that makes up the identity of Turks and Tatars of Dobruja..

Why MIRAS? Miras is a common word in Turkish and Tatar, which means the same thing, in both languages, heritage.

MIRAS is a project initiated in 2019, by the Department for Interethnic Relations and the Institute for the Study of National Minority Issues, to capitalize on the historical and cultural heritage of Turks and Tatars in Dobrogea, by creating a virtual museum of the two communities.

The virtual museum also contains media and new media materials, which are meant to strengthen the strong visual coordinate of the exhibition and to create the most authentic feeling of active participation. Last but not least, some materials come from the two communities themselves, either from members or from organizations representing Turks and Tartars.
