Charlotenburg, the only round-shaped village in Romania, is located in Timiș county and bears the imprint of German history since 1771, when it was founded by the Swabian settlers. Its distinctive feature is the circular arrangement of houses around a central square, a unique urban architecture in the country. The village still preserves many of the original buildings in the authentic Swabian architectural style, and in the center of the village is the 18th-century Catholic church.
