Bocșa (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈbokʃa] ⓘ; Hungarian: Boksánbánya; German: Deutsch-Bokschan, Neuwerk) is a town in Caraș-Severin County, in the Banat region of Romania, with a population of 12,949 in 2021.

The name "Bocșa" is believed to originate from the Slavic word "bok," meaning "side" or "hill," which reflects the town's geographical location in a hilly region.

Over time, the town transitioned to producing agricultural machinery, but mining remained a significant part of its economic history.

[4] Bocșa also became a cultural and educational hub, with diverse religious institutions due to successive waves of colonization.
