Ungheni has 18 residential buildings left from before 1919. From a house demolished in Dănuțeni, the museum saved the carved window

A museum curator happened to walk past a house being demolished in the Dănuțeni district and called his colleagues to pull out of the rubble whatever could still be saved: a solid wood window carved on three registers, a gable with a solar rosette. The pieces are now on display at the Museum of History and Ethnography. The house was not a listed monument — nor could it have been: in the state register, the Ungheni district's list occupies positions 1573 to 1720, and not one dwelling house appears in it. The 2024 census shows how much is left of the town's old layer: 18 residential buildings erected before 1919, out of nearly 5,000.

In Ungheni, state institutions took to their bikes for «VeloVineri», riding the newly rehabilitated Burebista street

On Friday, 10 July 2026, Ungheni's weekly «VeloVineri» ride gathered representatives of the town's deconcentrated institutions, brought together by the head of the Territorial Office, Ion Poia. Mayor Vitalie Vrabie gave the start outside the town hall, and the route took the group to the Dănuțeni neighbourhood, along the newly rehabilitated Burebista street — the same one where the administration launched works worth over 10 million lei this summer. Two weeks after the town hall promised a ride every Friday, the initiative shows it has held up.

Burebista Street in Ungheni: paving begins on a second, 700-metre section, funded from the local budget

On the very day the 1 July deadline cited for the 10.3-million-lei project ran out, Mayor Vitalie Vrabie said the “Europe Is Close” works are continuing, while the city hall separately began paving a second section of Burebista Street — more than 700 metres between Petru Rareș and Zamfir Arbore, from the local budget. Arcașii lui Ștefan and Mihai Viteazul streets are next.
