Drobeta Turnu Severin
Autumn came so please cover my heart with the
Tree shade—or yours so it won’t wither.
I fear that perhaps I won’t see you sometimes
That I’ll grow sharp wings up to the skies
That you’ll hide within a foreign eye
Which will close with a bitter good-bye.
And then I go near the rocks and shut up.
Take the words and drown them in the sea.
Drobeta Turnu Severin is the town of parks and gardens. They made their appearance and developed while the town itself was developing. The first park which appeared in 1959 on the Danube embankment was the Public Garden which today is called the "Dragalina" park and includes the remains of the Severin Fortess as well as the "Theodor Costescu" Cultural Palace

This building was altered several times between 1872-1906.
