About Craiova

Craiova 2021, City candidate for European Capital of Culture

A total of 14 Romanian cities were in the race for the European Capital of Culture 2021, but only four remained in the race. Bucharest, Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, and Timisoara are on the shortlist of candidate cities - www.romania-insider.com.

  • The name is probably of Bulgarian or Serbian origin, due to historical autochthonous minorities in the area.
  • The city is situated approximately in the center of Oltenia, at a distance of 227 km from Bucharest and 68 km from the Danube.
  • Craiova lies on the ruins of ancient Geto-Dacian city called Pelendava, dating from 400-350 BC. The settlement is mentioned in Tabula Peutingeriana map commissioned by Caracalla, the Roman Emperor, and completed by Alexander Severus during year 225.
  • The evolution of Craiova occurs in the context of the overall development of the Romanian Country during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
  • Wallachian Prince Mihai Viteazu - who served as the ban (military governor) of Craiova and achieved the first unification of the three Romanian principalities in 1600
  • the world-famous sculptor Constantin Brancusi - who studied at the Craiova Art School (Scola de Arte si Meserii) between 1894 - 1898 and carved his first sculptures here
Craiova-born Petrache Poenary (1799- 1875) - inventor of the first cartridge fountain pen.
- In 1913, the treaty of peace which ended the Balkan War,
treaty known in history as The Peace from Craiova, was signed here.
- The majority of train locomotives in Romania originated at the Electroputere workshops in Craiova.
- The bans had the right of coining money stamped with their own effigies,
hence the name of bani (centimes) in Romanian language.
- For those who want to find out more about the history and the traditions of this region we recommend a visit to the Oltenia Museum, housed in Baniei House (1699), the oldest non-religious building that exists in Craiova and one of the oldest lay buildings in the country.
- Art lovers should definitely not miss the Art Museum in Craiova, hosted in the Dinu Mihail Palace, built in the early 1900s in neo-classic style by a French architect.

Bucharest-Revolution Square

Revolution Square (Piata Revolutiei)-"The square gained worldwide notoriety when TV stations around the globe broadcasted Nicolae Ceausescu's final moments in power on December 21, 1989. It was here, at the balcony of the former Communist Party Headquarters, that Ceausescu stared in disbelief as the people gathered in the square below turned on him. He fled the angry crowd in his white helicopter, only to be captured outside of the city a few hours later. The square's importance stretches back long before the dramatic events of the 1989 Revolution. On the far side of the square stands the former Royal Palace, now home to the National Art Museum, the stunning Romanian Athenaeum and the historic Athenee Palace Hotel. At the south end of the square, you can visit the small, but beautiful, Kretzulescu Church." Source:  http://www.romaniatourism.com
