history
A document from 1403 mentioned Baccus, the son of nobleman Niklas Medwez, as the landlord of the village. The location is not entered on the Josephine land survey of 1717, but appears on the Mercy map from 1723–1724 under the name Metec . In 1761 there is an entry under the name Medves . In 1781, Medves was bought by Hadzsi Pasachia for 42,000 forints. In 1789, Johann Matthias Korabinsky describes Medves in his book "Geographisch-Historisches und Producten-Lexikon von Ungarn" as a Romanian village with extensive forests. Around 1800 32 German families from what is now southern Germany settled in Medves. In 1803 the Hungarian nobleman Gyurky Istvan was lord of Medves. In 1845 the estate was divided between Gyurky Pal and Hanzely Laszlo. They brought 50 Catholic Hungarians and 40 Evangelical Slovaks as workers from the counties of Nógrád , Heves and Pozsony to Medves.

During the Ottoman rule (1526-1718) the place was designated as pastureland and belonged to the Vilâyet Timișoara. From 1718 to 1778 the village belonged to the Habsburg crown domain Temescher Banat . In 1778 the Banat was awarded to the Kingdom of Hungary by Empress Maria Theresa . From 1849 to 1860 it was part of an independent crown land of the Voivodeship of Serbia and Temescher Banat . After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise (1867), the Banat was annexed to the Kingdom of Hungary within the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary . The Treaty of Trianon on June 4, 1920 resulted in the trisection of the Banat, whereby Medveș fell to the Kingdom of Romania . After the Second World War, Urseni (translation from Hungarian: medve = urs = bear ) became the official place name.
Today Urseni is experiencing rapid structural development thanks to its proximity to Timișoara.
