The place Dalnic is located west of the Kronstadt depression (Depresiunea Brașovului) , in the southeastern foothills of the Bodoc Mountains (Munții Bodoc) - a part of the Eastern Carpathian Mountains .

history

Dalnic, which is mostly inhabited by Szeklern people, was first mentioned in a document in 1332. According to Márton Roska, however, archaeological finds on the area known by the locals as the Tonorok at the confluence of the Dalnic and Kanta streams indicate that the area was settled as early as the Neolithic . Numerous finds in the municipality point to different ages and are in the museum of the district capital Sfântu Gheorghe.

At the time of the Kingdom of Hungary , Brețcu belonged to the Kézdi chair district in the Háromszék County ( Romanian Comitatul Trei-Scaune ), then to the historical Trei-Scaune district (German three chairs ) and from 1950 to the present Covasna district.

Dalnic became an independent municipality in early 2004 when it was separated from the Moacșa municipality.
