Unirea National College (Focșani)
__NOTOC__ Unirea National College Unirea National College () is a high school located at 15 Cezar Bolliac Street, Focșani, Romania. In 1865, ''Domnitor'' Alexandru Ioan Cuza ordered the establishment of a gymnasium in Focșani, which took place the following January, making it among the country's first such institutions. Within two years, the school had four grades, and the teachers were collecting materials for science, history and geography, as well as old coins. In 1880, work on the first dedicated building began; at the same time, the name changed from Cuza to Unirea, reflecting the association of Focșani with the union of the Principalities. A fifth grade was added in 1884, and the gymnasium soon became a high school. It moved into the new building in 1900. As early as the 1890s, students formed various literary and cultural societies. During World War I, when the area was under German occupation, the school closed and a hospital was set up inside. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
