history

The place was first mentioned in 1452 and 1493 in documents of the diplomatic department of the National Archives Budapest under the name Bogáros . At the 1717 census, Bogarosch was uninhabited. In 1761 the place was entered on a map in Vienna as Bogarosch . On the map of Count Florimund Mercy (1776) was entered at the place of today's Bulgăruş Bogáros . In 1794 the area was designated as pastureland Praedium Bogáros .

After the Peace of Passarowitz (1718), the Banat began to be colonized by the Habsburg Monarchy . Bogarosch was founded in 1769 during the Theresian Swabian procession through the settlement of German families from Alsace , Lorraine , Luxembourg , the Palatinate , Saarland , Upper Austria and Hesse . The head of the settlement was the imperial camera administrator Carl Samuel Neumann Edler von Buchholt . Each settler received 32 yoke fields, a house plot, building materials and seeds as well as tax breaks for the first few years.

As a result of the Austro-Hungarian settlement in February 1867, the Banat came under Hungarian administration internally . A huge wave of Magyarization began, which peaked at the beginning of the 20th century.

During the First World War , 543 conscripts were mobilized from Bogarosch, 84 died on the battlefield. In 1918 Bogarosch was occupied by the Serbs and in 1919 Romania was assigned. 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 Bogarosch also belonged, fell to the Kingdom of Romania . In 1923 the place was officially named Bulgăruș.

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. During the Second World War 44 men in the German army, 12 in the Romanian army and 4 civilians lost their lives.

In January 1945, 327 men and women were deported to the Soviet Union for forced labor , 50 never returned. All German landowners were expropriated by the Land Reform Act of March 23, 1945 . Land collectivization began in 1951 and was completed in 1958. On June 18, 1951, the deportation took place in the Bărăgan steppe , according to the "plan for the evacuation of elements over a section of 25 km, the presence of which constitutes a danger for the border area with Yugoslavia". When the Bărăgan displaced people returned home in 1956, they got back the houses and farms that had been expropriated in 1945, but the land ownership was collectivized . 295 people from Bulgăruș were deported to the Bărăgan steppe, 28 of whom died in the deportation.

Cultural life

In 1774 the Roman Catholic parish was founded; the construction of today's church was decided by the cameraman in 1773. On October 15, 1773 the foundation was measured. The construction work was completed in 1774. On November 1st of the same year the church was inaugurated by the canon of honor and pastor from Neu-Beschenowa, Georg Johann Franz Gliubichich. On September 30, 1859, the cross-shaped expansion of the church began with the construction of the two side wings.

The foundation stone of the school building was laid on May 29, 1853, and the kindergarten was opened in 1896. In 1927 the schools and kindergartens in Romania were nationalized. After the Second World War, teaching in German was banned for the time being. From 1948, when the school reform took place, there was again a German section in the school alongside the Romanian one. From 1965 the Germans began to leave Germany for the Federal Republic of Germany. Since 1990, due to the lack of German children, lessons have only been held in Romanian.
