Fratelia (Hungarian: Újkissoda, also Újtesöld; German: Neukischoda, also Neutischold),[2] known until 1925 as Chișoda Nouă,[3] is a district in southern Timișoara.

On the current location of Fratelia were discovered houses and ceramics characteristic of the early Neolithic (Vinča culture).

[6] In addition to brickyard workers, people from neighboring villages who worked in Timișoara built houses here.

[7] The first attempts to annex the village to Timișoara were between the two world wars, when the tram line was built.

[6] The brick factory, once owned by the Kendes, disappeared in the 1980s when the current thermal power plant was built.
