A World War II grenade and ammunition were discovered during excavations in Roznov, leading to an emergency intervention by the pyrotechnic team. The dangerous items were safely recovered and transported for controlled destruction.
Roznov is a town in Neamț County, situated in the photogenic valley of the Bistrița River in Northeast Romania. Its identity is profoundly shaped by the Roznovanu noble family, whose influence transformed the settlement into a cultural and social center of Moldavia during the 1800s. The town's most prized asset is the Roznov Dendrological Park, a lush 20-hectare estate featuring century-old rare trees and exotic species imported from across Europe. At its heart lies the St. Nicholas Orthodox Church, a unique architectural masterpiece commissioned by the Roznovanus, blending traditional Moldavian styles with Russian influences. Economically, Roznov evolved as a strategic industrial hub during the 20th century, particularly in paper milling and chemical production, leveraging the hydroelectric potential of the Bistrița. Officially becoming a town in 2003, it serves as a critical junction for transport between the cities of Piatra Neamț and Bacău. Roznov manages to balance its aristocratic history with its industrial reality, offering visitors a glimpse into the vanished world of Moldavian boyars amidst the natural beauty of the river landscape.
