Dumbrava

Dumbrava is a village administered by Trușeni. On June 17, 1992, in a decision taken by the Moldovan Government, the land that would soon be Dumbrava was given to Trușeni Commune.[5] One year after the decision, roads started to be built in the Dumbrava area, with the first home appearing in 1994.[6] The village did not have an official name until August 15, 2001, when the Trușeni Local Council approved the name Dumbrava.[6]
