The wooden church "The Holy Apostles Peter and Paul" from Costeni

The "Council of the Elders" is a statuary group made up of five characters, created by the artist Vida Gheza, in 1973. The work is located in front of the Administrative Palace in Baia Mare, being classified as a historical monument. The first version of the statuary group was made of wood, in 1972, and is currently in the collection of the "Artistic Center" Art County Museum in Baia Mare.  The Council of the Elders was a decision-making body that functioned in Maramureș from the medieval period until the beginning of the 20th century, according to the ancestral tradition.

The historical monument building where the great jurist, historian and academician Dr. Ioan Mihalyi of Apşa lived and created his valuable writings, reveals a double exhibition role. On the  ground floor, an Art Gallery of the Maramureș Museum has been arranged, inside which the works of great artists from Sighetu Marmației are exhibited, as well as works belonging to famous schools, from the country or abroad. An exhibition of local history and culture can be visited on the first floor of the building, as well as the museum-house set up in memory of Dr. Ioan Mihalyi of Apşa, open to the public since 1984. Ioan Mihalyi dedicated himself to researching and collecting medieval documents of Romanians from Maramureș, his efforts being included in the famous work "The History of Maramureș County, volume I, Maramureș Diplomas from the 14th and 15th century". Maintaining an air of antiquity which carries visitors into the past, the memorial house preserves the ambiance of the times when it hosted the meetings of the Association for the Culture of the Romanian People from Maramureş, also serving as headquarters for the "Dragoşiana" Reading Society. Here, one can also visit the library of the Association for the Culture of the Romanian People, as well as impressive collections of memoirs. 

The foundation stone of the settlement was laid in 1995, the church dedicated to the "Birth of the Virgin Mary" being completed three years later. The small cross-shaped place of worship was built of brick, the Byzantine-style interior painting being completed between 2000-2001. Over time, the ensemble was expanded with various other constructions. In 2015 the church was enlarged by adding a narthex and a Brâncovenesc-style porch. This blessed edifice, built by overcoming countless challenges, represents a veritable bridge to divinity.

The ruins of Logolda are reminiscent of the glory days of the mining town, when it is said that the purest gold in the world was extracted in Cavnic. The Logolda foundry was built in 1862 and soon became famous for the cyanide technology it used to extract gold, a method being used for the first time in this region of the world. Although the foundry ceased to function in the early 1900's, the stories created around it have endured.

In the immediate vicinity of Borșa town we find the largest geomorphologic, faunal and floristic nature Reserve in this part of Romania, which covers an area of ​​3,300 hectares. The Reserve includes an alpine meadow and the coniferous forests of the Stony Rodna Massif (Masivul Pietrosu Rodnei), revealing at the same time a glacial relief of a special importance. 

The Limpedea Columns Nature Reserve is located in the Ferneziu neighborhood of the city of Baia Mare. The site is a geological nature reserve, declared a protected area of ​​national interest in 2000. The volcanic rock has a spectacular appearance, being surrounded by beech, hornbeam, pine and birch forests. The reserve covers an area of ​​three hectares, at an average altitude of 300 m. Its small terraces with patches of grassy vegetation are reminiscent of the prehistoric period, when the entire nature was wild and untouched by man. The "stone organ" is highly sought-after by climbers. The climbing routes in the area are highly appreciated by those who come here to test their limits. In the volcanic stone quarry there are organized routes with a high degree of difficulty, so that only those who are prepared can climb it.

The Cave and Blue Spring of Iza Nature Reserve, because of its mixed geology and landscape, is one of the most visited among the protected areas of national interest in Maramureș County. This area is part of the Rodna Mountains National Park and covers ​​about 100 hectares, and includes caves, rocks and canyons. The name comes from one of the tributaries of the Iza River, whose water is a blue-green rarely found in Romania. Although it is located on the administrative territory of Săcel township, the most accessible route starts from Moisei township, crossing an area of valleys and hills of rare beauty.

The road connecting Maramureș to Bucovina, about 50 km long, reveals one of the most beautiful gorges in Romania. Located at an altitude of 1413 m, the Prislop Pass is steeper in the area of ​​Maramureș County, the slope becoming smoother to the south. The picturesque area, but also the famous Prislop Festival („Hora de la Prislop” Festival), which is organized here every year, attract countless tourists.

The Royal Forest is a green patch of land in surface of 49 ha, which became a seed reserve for oak and larch species in 1964, and in 2000 it was declared a protected natural area, being owned by the Mara Forest District. This forest is special for its unusual blend of tree species: oak, sessile oak and larch, which grow next to hornbeam, wild cherry, hazelnut and blackberry. There are still many monumental oak specimens, over 250 years old, 30 m high and more than 2 m in trunk diameter.
