Dacia (in the Transylvanian Saxon dialect, Ste, Stin, Štîn, in German Stein, in Hungarian Garat), is a village in Brașov County, Transylvania, Romania, part of Jibert commune. Until 1931, the village was known in Romanian as Ștena ( Romanianization of the German/Saxon name). In that year, the authorities changed its name to Dacia. [1]
History
The village was first attested in 1309. [2] Until 1980, it was inhabited by a majority of Transylvanian Saxons (by the end of 1970, most of them started emigrating to West Germany). The Transylvanian Saxon noble family of Soterius von Sachsenheim has its origins in this village, Valentinus Schöchtert (born c. 1554) being the earliest known ancestor. [3]
Climate
Dacia has a humid continental climate (Cfb in the Köppen climate classification).
