It is composed of two villages, Colonia 1 Mai and Vulcan. It also included Holbav village until 2004, when it was split off to form a separate commune.
Since its founding around the year 1377 it was one of the most important villages in the Burzenland area, where there was a strong Transylvanian Saxon community.
