history

A first documentary mention of the village of Chevzen comes from the papal tithe lists of 1337. In 1424 the village belonged to the landlords of Ciacova, had 92 houses, 11 wells and a church without a tower. On the Josephine land survey of 1717 the place Csebsha was registered with 80 houses and belonged to the district of Czakovar . After the Peace of Passarowitz (1718), when the Banat became a Habsburg crown domain , Cebza was part of the Temescher Banat . After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise (1867), the Banat was annexed to the Kingdom of Hungary within the dual monarchy . The official place name was Csebze . The Treaty of Trianon on June 4, 1920 resulted in the Banat being divided into three parts, whereby Cebza fell to the Kingdom of Romania . The official place name has been Cebza since then .

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.

Cebza Monastery

In the cemetery of Cebza there is a wooden church and a monastery, probably from the 15th century. The altar is built around a spring. Healing powers are attributed to the spring water. The monastery was first mentioned in documents in 1758.
