Reşiţa in County Caraş-Severin

 

Reşiţa (German: Reschitz, Hungarian: Resicabįnya, Serbian: Решица/Rešica) is a city in western Romania and the capital of Caraş-Severin County, in the Banat region.

A mining centre in Roman times, the present-day city was founded in the 18th century on a crown land of the Austrian Empire, when a foundry was established on the spot. The name has its origin in the Slavic Reshitsa, which is derived from reka ("river").

Reşiţa was of great importance to the Habsburg Monarchy due to the industrialisation in the area and its strategic geographical positioning; it became part of the Kingdom of Hungary in Austria-Hungary after the Ausgleich, and was incorporated into Romania with the rest of the Banat after World War I. An important iron and steel center (the local factory is called CSR - Combinatul Siderurgic Reşiţa), Reşiţa is the site of blast furnaces, iron foundries, and plants producing electrical appliances, chemicals, machinery, and metals.

Its 2004 population was 83,985.

Also, the city is a hub for leisure locations all around. Locations near Reşiţa include the ski resort at Semenic, Lake Gozna, Lake Secu, the Trei Ape Lake, Gărāna, Brebu, and Văliug.
