Abstract:
The article addresses the issue of cultural heritage protection in the Republic 
of Moldova. Since the 2000s, several elements have been entered in the 
heritage register, including the traditional carpet, carols, legends, ballads, 
choirs, stories, the tradition of martisoru and in turn is the whole universe of 
the costume. The culture acquired and registered in the Register has a status 
of culture protected by the state and are limited to a special regime that 
ensures the protection, transmission and development of this heritage. An 
important role in the transmission and capitalization of the patrimony is 
played by the family, the educational institutions, the state and the 
community. If ethnologists, ethnographers, folklorists, sociologists, 
anthropologists, research, identify the cultural heritage, then an important 
task falls to the state, which values the heritage through cultural policies.
