History & geography

History

From the late 13th century until 1876 the centre of today's commune was the administrative centre of the Aranyosszék region of Transylvania. In 1876, when the administrative system of the Kingdom of Hungary was reorganised, it became part of Torda-Aranyos county. After the Union of Transylvania with Romania in 1918, the commune became part of Turda County. Since 1968, when the latest administrative organisation in Romania was adopted, Unirea has been part of Alba County.

Geography

Unirea is located on the Mureș River, in the north-east corner of Alba County, approximately from the county capital, Alba Iulia, and from the town of Turda, on the Romanian National Road DN1. The commune is bordered by Cluj County in the north and west, the town of Ocna Mureș in the east, and the commune of Mirăslău in the south. The Unirea train station and the Unirea halt serve the CFR main line 300, which connects Bucharest with the Hungarian border near Oradea.
