Mioveni

Mioveni (Romanian pronunciation: [mi.oˈvenʲ]) is a town in Argeș County, Romania, approximately 15 km (9.3 mi) north-east of Pitești.

It officially became a town in 1989, as a result of the Romanian rural systematization program.

Prior to April 1989, when it was declared a town, the place was a commune under the name of Colibași.

In 1996, the historic name of Mioveni was revived, although the old village had been completely razed under the Communist regime in order to make way for new urban construction.
