Hungarian troops nearby the day before the massacre
On the 9th of September, 1940, at least 93 (and up to 263, depending on which country is reporting) Romanians were massacred by Hungarian troops in the village of Treznea during the handing over of Northern Transylvania.
Amongst the dead were the local priest, the schoolteacher and his wife. The Orthodox church was partially burnt down.
This is a controversial event in the history of the Second World War, and historians in Hungary present a very different version of events to historians in Romania.
Another event I didn’t know about.
Best wishes, Pete.
