Mănăștiur
Mănăștiur ( hu, Bégamonostor; german: Manester) is a commune in Timiș County, Romania. It is composed of four villages: Mănăștiur (commune seat), Pădurani, Remetea-Luncă and Topla. It is located in the contact area of the Lugoj Plain with the Lipova Plateau, on the upper course of the Bega River. History The first recorded mention of the toponym ''Mănăștiur'' dates from 1427, and in 1453 the actual settlement is recorded in the Hungarian royal documents as ''Monostor'', located in Temes County. It is very possible that this name comes from the existence of a monastery, because everywhere in Transylvania where this name was taken over by a settlement, there was a monastery. What is certain is that a fortress was built here during this period, because in 1505 the village is mentioned as ''castellum Monosthor''. The fortresses of Mănăștiur and Margina had the same captain who had taken the oath before Count Brandenburg, married to Beatrice, the widow of Matthias Co ...

They live in Europe and Anatolia, and have diaspora populations located worldwide, with significant concentrations in the Americas.
