history

The first written mention of it comes from 1334, when a place called Parkas was mentioned on the territory of today's Parța . On the Mercy map from 1723 the place Parza was noted with 84 houses.

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 Parța 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 in Romania, deprived the rural population of their livelihoods.

In the 1970s and 1980s, a Stone Age settlement was excavated under the direction of Gheorghe Lazarovici . Artifacts from this settlement, one of the most important in Romania, can be seen in the Banat National Museum . It is the 6000 year old Neolithic sanctuary of Parța of the Vinča culture .

Since 2004 the village has formed its own municipality again by being separated from the municipality of Șag (Schag) and has its own town hall. The first elected mayor is Mihai Petricaș.
