Our Facilities
The work of SOS-Kinderdorf International in Romania started immediately after the overthrow of the dictator Nicolae Ceau?escu by signing a general agreement with the Romanian government on June 1st, 1990 regarding the construction of two SOS Children's Villages. The construction of the two Romanian SOS Children's Villages, one in Bucharest and the other one in Cisnadie/Transylvania near Sibiu, started in October 1991. Already in February 1993, the first families could move into their new homes at the SOS Children's Village Cisnadie and in April of the following year the first SOS mothers and children moved into the SOS Children's Village Bucharest.
The official opening of the SOS Children's Village Bucharest took place on October 22, 1993, that of the SOS Children's Village Cisnadie on October 24, 1993. On the property of the SOS Children's Village Cisnadie, there is also a holiday-camp where the children from the SOS Children's Village Bucharest can stay during their summer holidays.
