This is a list of mayors of Timișoara from 1718, when Banat, including Timișoara, were incorporated into the Kingdom of Hungary, to the present day when it is part of Romania. The position was created on 1 January 1718 by Count Claude Florimond de Mercy, governor of Banat, under the name of magistrate.[3] Until 1780, Timișoara had two magistrates, one German for the German population settled here and one Illyrian or Rascian for the local population.[1] The first German magistrate of the city was Tobias Balthasar Hold [de], a campaign medical doctor from Bavaria and among the first foreign, Western settlers to arrive in Timișoara.[4] Together with the Rascian magistrate, its task was to enforce measures to maintain public safety and hygiene, collect taxes and enforce the fire authority's regulations.[5]
