Traian Vuia Museum

Dedicated to the memory of the Romanian and world aviation pioneer, the Traian Vuia Museum is 20 km far from Lugoj in Traian Vuia locality, Timiş county, where on 17.08.1872 was born the inventor from Banat (Bujoru commune, Caraş-Severin county, at that time).

The museum was inaugurated in April 2012, the year that commemorated 106 years from the time (18.03.1906) when Aurel Vlaicu reached the peaks of glory, achieving the first flight propelled by a machine heavier than air without using external means.
