Summary/Abstract: Born in 1859 in Năsăud, Iuliu Moisil, the youngest son of vicar Grigore Moisil, will become one of the most important intellectuals of Romania at the end of the 19th century–the beginning of the 20th century, distinguished by a rich educational, social, national and cultural activity. This article stops, for a moment, on the beginnings of his activity in Slatina, a training period that reveals the creative potential of Iuliu Moisil, one of the founders of the Năsăud Border Museum, which is celebrating its anniversary this year. An episode that, based on archival documents, brings to light a moment of destiny marked by the decision to live and work in the Old Kingdom as well as aspects of Iuliu Moisil’s activity in the first decade of his professional career.
