history
Groß-Jetscha is located 33 km northwest of Timișoara ( Timisoara ). The place was named after the predium Jecsa . The oldest records of Großjetscha come from 1467, when, according to the Bishop of Tschanad Johann von Szokol (1466–1493), a village called Öcse , later also Erdös , was located in the area of Jecsa .
The settlement with Germans took place in 1767 under the supervision of the administrative council Johann Wilhelm Edler von Hildebrand . 200 houses were newly built during the settlement. Construction of the church began in 1770 and the consecration of the church took place in 1780. The old school was built in 1852 and the new school in 1898. In 1902 the gravel road to Gertianosch was laid.
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 Great Jetscha also belonged, fell to Romania.
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. 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 Act of June 11, 1948 provided for the nationalization of all industrial and commercial enterprises, banks and insurance companies, whereby all commercial enterprises were expropriated regardless of ethnicity.
Since the population along the Romanian-Yugoslav border was classified as a security risk by the Romanian government after the rift between Stalin and Tito and his exclusion from the Cominform alliance, "politically unreliable elements" were deported to the Bărăgan on June 18, 1951 . Steppe 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.
The municipality of Iecea Mare has emerged from the municipality of Cărpiniș (Gertianosch) since 2004 .
