The Merry Cemetery (Romanian: Cimitirul Vesel) is a cemetery in the village of Săpânţa, Maramureş county. It is famous for its colourful tombstones with naïve paintings describing, in an original and poetic manner, the persons that are buried there as well as scenes from their lives. The Merry Cemetery became an open-air museum and a national tourist attraction.

Maramureşul este una dintre zonele geografice cu cel mai puternic şi autentic spirit tradiţional românesc fiind puternic ancorat în credinţă nu doar în tradiţii.

The unusual feature of this cemetery is that it diverges from the prevalent belief, culturally shared within European societies – a belief that views death as something indelibly solemn. Connections with the local Dacian culture have been made, a culture whose philosophical tenets presumably vouched for the immortality of the soul and the belief that death was a moment filled with joy and anticipation for a better life (see also Zalmoxianism).
Ineditul acestui cimitir este diferen ierea fa ă de majoritatea ț țculturilor popoarelor, care consideră moartea ca un eveniment foarte solemn. În anul 1935, la sugestia preotului greco-catolic Grigore Ri iu, care era i ț șprofesor de română i latină, Stan șIoan Pătra a realizat partea șverticală a crucilor ceva mai lat, cu loc pentru epitaf.

The cemetery's origins are linked with the name of Stan Ioan Pătraş, a local artist who sculpted the first tombstone crosses. In 1935, Pătraş carved the first epitaph and, as of 1960s, more than 800 of such oak wood crosses came into sight.
Din 1935 datează primul epitaf, iar din anii 1960 încoace, întreg cimitirul a fost populat cu circa 800 astfel de cruci, sculptate din lemn de stejar, devenind un muzeu în aer liber de natură unică i o atrac ie turistică.ș țUnele cruci sunt pictate pe ambele păr i. Pe o parte este plasată o țdescriere a vie ii celui îngropat, iar pe țcelălalt o descriere a motivului mor ii.ț

The inscription on his tombstone cross says:
Romanian
De cu tînăr copilaşIo am fost Stan Ion PătraşSă mă ascultaţ oameni buniCe voi spune nu-s minciuniCîte zile am trăitRău la nime n-am doritDar bine cît-am pututOrişicine mia cerutVai săraca lumea meaCă greu am trăit în ea
