Subdivisions of Romania in Romanian, Hungarian and German: județe

Romania is divided into 41 counties (județe) and the municipality of Bucharest. This list gives each county with its seat and ISO 3166-2 code, then the 314 urban places of the counties, 102 municipalities (municipii) and 212 towns (orașe), with the Hungarian name for 134 of them and the German name for 96.

Three names for one town

Romanian is the official language of Romania, but in the west and centre of the country many towns also have a Hungarian name, and a good number a German one. Alba Iulia is Gyulafehérvár in Hungarian and Karlsburg in German; Cluj-Napoca is Kolozsvár and Klausenburg; Brașov is Brassó and Kronstadt.

Counties follow the same pattern. Hungarian adds megye, county, to the name, so Arad becomes Arad megye, while Alba becomes Fehér megye, a name of its own. German uses Bezirk, as in Bezirk Kronstadt. Counties such as Bacău, Iași, Dolj or Constanța have no Hungarian or German forms in the list, and neither do their towns.

The 41 counties of Romania and Bucharest with their seats

Each county with its Romanian name, the Hungarian and German name where one exists, the seat in the same three languages and the ISO 3166-2 code.

Towns, ranks and names: the 2016 edition of this list. The Romanian rank of a town can change by law, so a place listed here as oraș may have become a municipiu since.

04 · Name pairs

Names that do not translate

Many Hungarian and German names are not translations of the Romanian ones but separate names with their own history. Sighișoara is Segesvár and Schäßburg, Târgu Mureș is Marosvásárhely and Neumarkt am Mieresch, and Anina in the Banat is Stájerlakanina in Hungarian and Steierdorf-Anina in German.

In Covasna and Harghita every town in the list has a Hungarian name, and only some have a German one: Sfântu Gheorghe is Sepsiszentgyörgy and Miercurea-Ciuc is Csíkszereda, while Szeklerburg is the German form of Miercurea-Ciuc. Where the list gives no Hungarian or German name, as for Oțelu Roșu in German, the cell stays empty.
