The Black Gold Capital of Europe, a place with deep historical resonance, Ploiești is home to the world's first oil refinery, built in 1857. This innovation made Bucharest the first city in the world to be lit by gas lamps.

For many Americans, the name "Ploiești" is synonymous with one of the most daring and costly air missions in US history - Operation Tidal Wave. On August 1, 1943, B-24 Liberator bombers flew at low altitude from Libya to strike the refineries that fueled the German war machine. The mission was so intense that five Medals of Honor were awarded in a single day — a record for the Air Force.
