Radio Cluj (Hungarian Kolozsvári Rádió ) is a regional public radio program of the Romanian radio company Societatea Română de Radiodifuziune . Its transmission area extends to almost all parts of Transylvania . The station is based in Klausenburg (Rum. Cluj-Napoca ), connected to the two local stations Antena Sibiului and Radio Sighet in Hermannstadt and Siget .

History and program

Radio Cluj's program started in March 1954, at a time when various regional broadcasters of the Romanian state radio were founded. Nicolae Ceaușescu closed them down in 1985, fearing that the regional broadcasters would develop too much independence . In the course of the demonstrations against the dictator , former Radio Cluj employees revived the station in December 1989.

The station provides its listeners 24 hours a day with information, entertainment, culture and music programs and, according to its own statements, reaches around 3.5 million listeners. Radio Cluj broadcasts several hours in Hungarian every day of the week . The Hungarian-language editorial office was also founded in 1954.
