The National Institute of Heritage (INP) is a governmental institution in Romania established in 2009 through the merger of the National Office of Historical Monuments and the National Institute of Historical Monuments. In 2011, the Institute for Cultural Memory - CIMEC was absorbed into INP.[1]
- The period 1892 – 1948: In 1892, the "Commission of Historical Monuments" (CMI) was established under the authority of the Ministry of Public Instruction. Over its more than 50 years of operation, CMI had notable presidents such as Nicolae Iorga, who served from 1923 to 1940. Other significant figures included N. Ghika-Budești, Ștefan Balș, Arthur Verona, and Horia Teodoru. The main responsibilities of CMI included researching historical monuments, approving projects, inspecting, and documenting historical monuments.
- The period 1949 – 1951: During this time, the Committee for Cultural Establishments and the Directorate of Fine Arts within the Committee for Art were operational. These institutions attempted to assume the responsibilities of the former Commission of Historical Monuments.
