The Museum of romanian Press from Jimbolia was declared open on 14 september 2007, the first institution of this kind in Romania, one of the few even in Europe (in Aachen, Germany, and in Portugal). The museum received the name of Sever Bocu, first class citizen of Banat, born in Șiştarovăţ, who published the newspaper “România Mare” in Kiev, in 1917, for the romanian war prisoners in concentration camps.
