Moşilor

Moşilor

Moşilor (literally, Elders) is a residential quarter in Bucharest's Sector 2. It houses the Foişorul de Foc and Silvestru Church. Its name derives from the main avenue Calea Moşilor which in turn is named after a well-known fair held in Obor square (Târgul Moşilor) from the 18th century up to the 1950s. The Moşilor quarter is serviced by tram lines 14, 16 and 21, and the M1 Line through Obor metro station.
