history

The village of Pabd was first mentioned in 1221. In 1489 the estate belonged to Imre Doczy and the Petö family. Until the end of the 15th century, the owners changed several times: Endrödi Bekesfi, Botha Andras and Tarczai Janos. In the 18th and 19th centuries the estate was owned by the Gyertyánffy family.

After the Peace of Passarowitz (1718), when the Banat became a Habsburg crown domain , Bobda was part of the Temescher Banat .

The last landowner of Bobda was Csávossy Gyula. In 1897, Baron Csávossy had a fort with 42 rooms, a park, a horse stud and a mausoleum built on the model of the basilica from Esztergom in Bobda . Members of the Csávossy family are buried in the crypt of the mausoleum . Later the mausoleum was converted into a Roman Catholic church.

On June 4, 1920, the Banat was divided into three parts as a result of the Treaty of Trianon . The largest, eastern part, to which Bobda also belongs, fell to the Kingdom of Romania . As a result of the land reform of 1921 , Csávossy was acquired and the land was divided among the villagers.

As a result of the Waffen-SS Agreement of May 12, 1943 between the Antonescu government and Hitler's Germany , all men of German origin who were conscripted into the German army. The Germans from Romania had to pay for this after Romania switched sides on August 23, 1944. Before the end of the war, in January 1945, all ethnic German women between the ages of 18 and 30 and men between the ages of 16 and 45 were deported to the Soviet Union for reconstruction work .

The Land Reform Act of March 23, 1945 , which provided for the expropriation of German farmers without compensation, as former members of the German ethnic group in Romania , deprived the rural population of their livelihood. At the same time, the houses of the Germans were also expropriated without compensation. Land and farmhouses were distributed to smallholders, farm workers and colonists from other parts of the country.

The nationalization law of June 11, 1948 , which provided for the nationalization of all industrial and commercial enterprises, banks and insurance companies, resulted in the expropriation of all commercial enterprises. In the early 1950s, the collectivization of agriculture took place.

Since the population along the Romanian-Yugoslav border was classified as a security risk by the Romanian government after Stalin's rift with Tito and his exclusion from the Cominform alliance, they were deported to the Bărăgan steppe on June 18, 1951, regardless of ethnicity . At the same time, the Romanian leadership aimed to break the resistance against the impending collectivization of agriculture. When the Bărăgan abductees returned home in 1956, the houses and farms expropriated in 1945 were returned to them. However, the field ownership was collectivized.
