History

The village of Barice was officially mentioned for the first time in 1713 under the name Janoš. In 1717, the village changed its name to Saint Janoš, and in 1922 it received its Serbian name Sveti Jovan. After the Second World War, the village got its current name of Barice, probably because of the ponds that were created during the use of the land for construction. According to the notes of Pope Ioan Neagoe, the municipality was called St. Janos and it was founded before the Turks came to these areas, back in 1521, when the descendants of Barice came as colonists from the areas of Vechiul Regat and Ardeal in the spring of the same year. The first inhabitants, the founders of St. Janos, settled near the bridge called Pietri, which is located in the atar of Jermenovci, where a wooden cross is preserved to this day. They lived there for 64 years, until 1585, when, in fear of Turkish attacks, they moved to another place that was surrounded by reeds and bushes, sheltered - where the municipality is still located - wrote the priest Neagoe. The houses were built without any order (scattered in all directions). It was like that until 1789, when the municipality got its current appearance. The first church was built of logs and the locals dragged it with 20 oxen when moving to a new place. Services were held in that church for 311 years. The first priest, who together with the founders and the first families who settled in the village from Transylvania, was Radu Neagoe. Ioan Neagoe transmitted these historical data, which, as he himself wrote, were recorded in old church records that were destroyed in 1848 in the Revolution, which was also written about by professor Dr. Gligor Popi in the book "Romanians in the Serbian part of Banat" (Publisher of Libertatea 1993), where he also mentions that a lot of Romanians died in the battles of 1848 and 1849. Professor Popi states that, among others, the village of St. Janos also suffered. The locals were in exile for 4 months, from September 13, 1848 to January 20, 1849. On their return, they found the village in ruins, almost destroyed.
