Plopi (Hungarian: Kardostelep; German: Kardosch Kolonie),[1] formerly known as I. G. Duca,[2] is a district of Timișoara, Romania. Before becoming a district of Timișoara, it was an independent settlement. It was annexed to Timișoara together with Ghiroda Nouă in 1949.[3]
History
Before 1918, most of the land was owned by née Malva Klaritz, the widow of Count László Gyürky. She apportioned the land for a fee to those who wanted it, her name appearing in the land register of Ghiroda commune until the 2000s.[4] Around 1930, the district was named I. G. Duca, after Romanian prime minister Ion G. Duca; later, at the suggestion of sculptor Romulus Ladea, who lived here around 1940, it was renamed Plopi.[5]
