distinct historical evolution. Like Romanians themselves, it is fundamentally defined as
the meeting point of three regions: Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and the Balkans, but
cannot be truly included in any of them.

Short History
“Lucian Grigorescu” School, located in Medgidia, Constanta District, is a public educational
institution for primary and secondary education.
For over 40 years, our school is the cornerstone that bears witness of the life and activity of
renowned teachers and students. It started as a small building completed in 1906, which has
become the reminder of the first girls school in town.
On October 8th, 1957, the School Board decided that the school shall have the name of “Nicolae
Balcescu”, altogether with the setting out of a new bigger building which was completed and
opened in 1962.
With over a thousand students, “Nicolae Balcescu” High-School provided primary, secondary and
high-school education. In 1982, the high-school separated and moved to another building. From
that moment on the school was known as School no. 6.
Since January 29th, 1994, the school took the name of the illustrious Medgidian painter Lucian
Grigorescu.
