history

Dumbrava was settled with Hungarians from the Szeged area in 1893 . The Hungarians called the place Igazfalva . Already in the Middle Ages there were two settlements with the names Also Igazfalwa and Felso Igazfalwa .

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

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 Igazfalva also belongs, fell to the Kingdom of Romania . Since then, Dumbrava has been the official name of the place.
