Favourable conditions such as climate, soil, vegetation or food turned our town into the cradle of the oldest settlement known in Europe.

Situated on the Danube, the 9,000 year old western residential district of the town, known as Schela Cladovei, has been under the investigation of archeologists for the last 36 years.
