Description of Dej
Either coming from Cluj Napoca, Bistrita or Baia Mare, Dej encounters you with the ambience of an old town where the modern tries not to spoil, but to complete the beauty and the priceless value of what history and people left here.
In those nearly 800 years of its existence, Dej crossed the crucial moments, trials that defined and consolidated its identity. The testimonies and the archeological discoveries of early times which are placed in the Municipal Museum of Dej mention this town as a Dacian settlement and later a Roman one. During the middle ages, the settlement receives the status of center of the Szolnok County which had great economic importance. Robbed and burned down during the invasion of Tatars, Dej raised up I the 14 th century and became a political- administrative, mining, crafts and trade center. Afflicted during the rebellion of Bobalna, the revolution of 1848 and the First World War, the town proved its strategic position and the quality of an economic and cultural center, promoting the identity and the freedom of the people, by its personalities like: Guilelm Sorban, Teodor Mihali, Stefan Cicio Pop, Alexandru Vaida Voievod.
If the past had its say by leaving values in people, works of architecture and art, the present had distinguished itself by preserving the historical heritage , promoting and cultivating traditions and by building a city according to the needs and requirements of the modern world.
By responding to our invitation to visit and meet us, you will enjoy our hospitality, thus becoming part of the history continually written in Dej, the town metaphorically known as "The Somes Gate".
