The city was first documented in 1332 in the papal registry under the name Novum Forum Siculorum. In 1405 the King of Hungary Sigismund of Luxembourg granted the city of Târgu Mures (by then named Székelyvásárhely, see Székely) the right to organize fairs and in 1482 the King Matthias Corvinus declared the city a royal settlement. It became a municipality in 1616, changing its name to Marosvásárhely, the Romanian equivalent of which is Târgu Mures (Târg and Vásár mean "Market" in Romanian and Hungarian respectively). In 1754 Târgu Mures became home to the supreme court of justice of the Principality of Transylvania which provided a major boost to the city's social and economic life. Avram Iancu, the leader of the 1848 Romanian revolution in Transylvania, was a young lawyer in the city of Târgu Mures before engaging in the fight for the rights of Romanians living in Transylvania. The provincial appearance of the city changed greatly in the late 19th and early 20th century. The spectacular Transylvanian Secession-style city hall complex was opened, as part of mayor Bernády György's urban renewal, in 1913. After World War I, Târgu Mures became part of Romania, like the rest of Transylvania. After it became a city of Romania, Marosvásárhely was first re-named Osorheiu. Economic success continued until World War II. From having been an 89% Hungarian-populated city (1910), Romanian population increased throughout the latter half of the 20th century. From 1940 to 1944, as a consequence of the Second Vienna Award, Târgu Mures was ceded to Hungary. During this period, a Jewish ghetto was estsablished in the city. It re-entered the Romanian administration at the end of the war in October 1944. After World War II, the communist administration of Romania conducted a policy of massive industrialization that completely re-shaped the community, and set up a Hungarian Autonomous Province based in the city, which lasted 15 years. Târgu Mures became the center of economic and social life of the region. In March 1990, shortly after the Romanian Revolution of 1989 overthrew the communist regime, Târgu Mures was the stage of violent confrontations between ethnic Hungarians and Romanians. (See Ethnic clashes of Târgu Mures). As of 2000, a considerable percentage of the population of Târgu Mures has started to work abroad temporarily. The local economy has started to get stronger after various investors settled in the area. Târgu Mures has a substantial ethnic Hungarian minority, some of whom identify as Székelys. Since 2003 some Székely organisations have been campaigning for the city to again become centre of an autonomous region. Dorin Florea is the first directly elected ethnic Romanian mayor of the city, though the city council retains a majority of ethnic Hungarians. Târgu Mures was the home of Avram Iancu, Alexandru Papiu Ilarian, Farkas Bolyai, János Bolyai, Felix Moldovan and Petru Maior.
