On 28 April 2024, a digital exhibition entitled “The Lost Statues of Bánffy Castle, Bonțida” opened at said castle, created as part of the European SOS Heritage project, with the aim of digitising the surviving pieces of the castle’s Baroque sculpture gallery and presenting them together as a digital collection.
The digital exhibition was created as part of the SOS Heritage project (2022-2024), co-funded by the EU, with the intent of bringing together, albeit virtually, the still existing and accessible sculptures of this Baroque sculpture gallery of outstanding significance.
At the beginning of 2024, the Foundation produced photogrammetric images of the statues and urns, which were used to create 3D models that can be viewed, rotated and enlarged on any smartphone. Thus, the digital exhibition will allow visitors to view in ensemble the surviving sculptures of the most important Transylvanian Baroque sculpture gallery.
The 3D models of the exhibition can be viewed here:
