Traian National College, Secondary education building in Drobeta Turnu Severin, Romania.
Traian National College is a secondary education building located at 6 Carol I Boulevard, characterized by symmetrical windows and ornamental stonework across its facade. The structure houses classrooms and laboratories serving students in grades 9 through 12.
The institution began operations in 1883, founded through a merger of a teacher training school and an apprentices school that had been established in the previous decade. This consolidation created the foundation for the present educational facility.
The college takes its name from Roman Emperor Trajan, reflecting the area's historical connection to the ancient bridge that once spanned the Danube nearby. This naming choice links the institution to the region's Roman past.
This school building is located along Carol I Boulevard in central Drobeta Turnu Severin, making it easy to find in the city center. As an active educational facility, access may be limited during school hours and special permission might be needed to enter.
The school grounds contain a garden planted in 1899 with vegetation brought from Timisoara, along with a bronze bust of King Carol I unveiled in 1902. These two features reflect the institution's historical ties to the wider region.
