history

The village is located in the Banat and was created in 1786 during the third great Swabian campaign under Joseph II and settled with Protestants . Liebling was the first Protestant settlement in the Banat.

The place name goes back to the camera administrator Nikolaus Freiherr von Vecsey. The colonial commissioner Walbrun wanted to name the place Veczehaza in his honor. Baron von Vecsey refused this honor and replied: No, it should be called darling, because the Protestants are my favorites.

The Protestant church was completed in 1823. In 1835 the Protestant communities in the Banat founded their own church district. In 1841 the Protestant school was built. In 1845 the Roman Catholic parish was founded in Liebling. After Liebling fell to Romania as a result of the Treaty of Trianon , 16 Romanian families were settled here in 1926.

On June 4, 1920, the Banat was divided into three parts as a result of the Treaty of Trianon . The largest, eastern part, which also included Liebling, fell to Romania.

In 1941 Liebling had 5086 inhabitants, 886 of them Romanians and 4086 Germans. On September 22nd, 1944, 2,158 German residents from Liebling fled westwards from the approaching Soviet army . In October they arrived in the Braunau area , where they were quartered in the surrounding villages. More than a hundred darlings were deported to Russian labor camps in January 1945 , in which almost half were killed. After 1945, the communist government settled more than 2000 Romanians in the empty houses. In 2002 Liebling had 3744 inhabitants, of which 3362 were Romanians and 22 Germans.

The Land Reform Act of March 23, 1945 , which provided for the expropriation of German farmers in Romania, deprived the rural population of their livelihoods.

economy

In 1994 the Romanian-Italian trading company "BRIST PAN" was founded in Liebling, producing baked goods and dairy products. Italian ovens are said to bake 3,500 breads a day. The commissioning of our own mill was planned for a later date. In the cheese department , butter and various types of cheese are to be produced, including the well-known mozzarella . For this purpose, 2,000 liters of milk should be processed daily. In the third department, ten types of biscuits, pizza, cake sheets and grisines are to be produced.
