history

The village owes its name to the Austrian field master craftsman Johann Baptist Coronini-Cronberg , governor of the Voivodeship of Serbia and the Temesian Banat from 1850 to 1859 . Coronini had the village re-established on the site of the former Alibeg . The ruins of the Ladislaus Fortress from the 14th century can still be seen on the Cula hill . The fortress was destroyed by the Turks in 1526 .

The population of Coronini is made up of Czechs and Romanians , so-called Bufänen , who fled Oltenia before the Turkish invasions.

After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise (1867), the Banat was annexed to the Kingdom of Hungary within the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary . In the first decade of the 20th century, the law for the Magyarization of place names (Ga. 4/1898) was applied, including the Magyarization of all toponyms on maps , land register extracts and city ​​maps . The official place name was Lászlóvára . The Hungarian place names remained valid until the administrative reform of 1923 in the Kingdom of Romania , when the Romanian place names were introduced.

The Treaty of Trianon on June 4, 1920 resulted in the Banat being divided into three parts , whereby Coronini fell to the Kingdom of Romania . In 1964 the village was renamed Pescari by decree, and in 1995 it was given its former name Coronini again .
