History
The Béga, a left tributary of the Tisza, is 254 km long. Governor Francis Mercy first began draining the marshes and regulating the river in 1718. He dug a 70 km long canal from Temesvár to Klek and added a 10 km long feeder canal, making the Béga navigable. In 1871, the Temes-Béga Valley Water Regulation Association was founded. Its palace was designed by Baumhorn Lipót.
