February, 22. – 23. 2o25
Timișoara, one of Romania’s most vibrant cities, boasts a rich history with strong Hungarian ties. The city was once a key fortress of the Kingdom of Hungary and remained under the ownership of the Hunyadi family for a long time. Governor John Hunyadi spent part of his youth here and led his famous campaigns against the Ottomans from this very place. From the 18th century onwards, Timișoara underwent significant development, with Hungarian engineers and industrialists contributing to its modernization. In 1884, the city became the first in the world to have a fully functional public lighting system, established with the involvement of Hungarian engineers. Hungarian culture and education also played a crucial role in Timișoara’s development, as several Hungarian schools and cultural institutions operated in the city.
The traces of Hungarian history can still be found throughout the city, particularly in the historic downtown and the famous Fabric district, where Hungarian craftsmen left a lasting legacy. The positive heritage of the city’s past remains evident today, as Timișoara continues to be a true cultural hub where Hungarian history and traditions live on.
