As there are not too many buildings erected at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the town officials have permanently been concerned with preserving them.
The development of the town as well as the prosperity of its inhabitants is due to the setting up of the port (1851) and of the ship repair shop (1858) which was the first in our country and became the centre of the future shipyard which was to become the most important one in the 1914 Romania and one of the most significant shipyards on the Danube.
In 1833, the modern town of Turnu Severin made its appearance as a commercial town which was developed following the plans drawn up by the engineer Xavier Villacrose (1835).
