History & geography

History

Tomești is first mentioned in the Turkish period, in a Turkish defter from 1597 in which it is shown that it was part of Hunyad County. After 1724, many of the inhabitants worked at the mines in Luncani, and from the 19th century at the glass factory in Colonia Fabricii. In the interwar period it was part of Plasa Margina, Severin County. At the same time, the Germans formed a large community, accounting for about a third of the total population. After 1990, the village felt strongly the fall of the glass industry, unemployment becoming the main problem.

Geography

Tomești, with an area of , is located in the east of Timiș County, on the northern slope of the Poiana Ruscă Mountains, on the upper course of the Bega River until its confluence with Șasa (Bega Poieni). The relief gradually descends from altitudes of over in the south of the commune to below in the north. The commune borders Curtea to the north, Pietroasa to the east, Hunedoara County to the southeast, Caraș-Severin County to the south, Nădrag to the southwest and Fârdea and Făget to the west. Tomești commune is located in an area of complex morphoclimatic interference (mountain, piedmont and meadow) where the solar energy is distributed differently, and the circulation of western and northwestern air masses gives it certain peculiarities that can be grouped allover from south (mountainous area) to north (meadow area). The climate of the southern area falls within the climatic zone of the medium mountains with a longer duration and frequency of meteorological phenomena and with a transition to a hilly climate in the central and northern part. An important role is played by the forest vegetation with effects on the frequency and intensity of the wind, the precipitation regime, the relative humidity, the cloudiness and the duration of the sunshine, as well as the Bega River, which contributes to the production or amplification of the fog. The average annual temperature records different values, in relation to the altitude, the exposure to the solar radiation and to the general circulation of the air masses. The annual thermal differences between sunny and sheltered slopes and those shaded and exposed to wind exceed . Tomești commune can be divided into distinct zones depending on the temperature: * northern area (Tomești–Românești), average annual temperatures…
