The Ruins of the Ilidia Citadel (Socolari)

Between 1870-1880, on the hill that separated Ilidia and Socolari in the modern era, traces of a fortified stone settlement could be seen. Although its exact origin is not known, based on archaeological discoveries and information from sources that support the Dacian and then Daco-Roman continuity in the mining settlements in the Carășan region, it can be concluded that it is a construction that belonged to those ancient times.
