Teremia Mare

Teremia Mare (German: Marienfeld; Hungarian: Máriafölde; Serbian: Велика Теремија, romanized: Velika Teremija) is a commune in Timiș County, Romania.

In the interwar period it was part of Plasa Comloșu Mare, Timiș-Torontal County and was a German locality, with very few Romanians and Hungarians.

Immediately after the 1989 revolution, the mass exodus of the Germans took place, so that Teremia Mare became a majority Romanian locality.

[5] By religion, most inhabitants are Orthodox (77.78%), but there are also minorities of Roman Catholics (6.54%), Pentecostals (4.98%), Baptists (1.82%), Jehovah's Witnesses (1.12%) and Reformed (1.09%).

[6] Teremia Mare is a winegrowing community and is known for its high-quality red wine and brandy, the Marienfelder Cognac.
