history
The historian Marsigli mentions the Wallachian village of Vucova, which belonged to the Lugoj district , in his records from 1690 to 1700 . On the Josephine land survey of 1717 Vukowo is registered with 63 houses and belongs to the district of Ciacova . After the Peace of Passarowitz (1718) the village was part of the Habsburg crown domain Temescher Banat . The Wacova is inhabited on the Mercy map from 1723 . In 1785, German colonists settled on the southern hotter of Vucova and founded the village of Nitzkydorf .
After the Austro-Hungarian Compromise (1867), the Banat was annexed to the Kingdom of Hungary within the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary . The Hungarian government first settled Slovaks in Temesvukovár in 1807 , who received land from the Ciacovaer Hotter. Between 1825 and 1850 there was another colonization with Slovaks. Most of them came from Veľký Krtíš in southern Slovakia . In 1852 the Slovaks built the Protestant church. The Romanian Orthodox Church was built in 1893.
The Treaty of Trianon on June 4, 1920 resulted in the Banat being divided into three parts , whereby Vucova fell to the Kingdom of Romania .
