Lugoj
Lugoj (Hungarian: Lugos, German: Lugosch) is a city in the Timiş county, Transylvania, Romania, situated on both banks of the Timiş river , which divides the town in two quarters, the Romanian on the right and the German on the left bank. It is the seat of a Greek-United Romanian bishop.
Lugoj was once a strongly fortified place and of greater relative importance than at present. It was the last seat of the Hungarian revolutionary government (in August 1849), and the last resort of Kossuth and several other leaders of the national cause, previous to their escape to Turkey.
