Ilișești (German: Illischestie) is a commune located in Suceava County, Bukovina, northeastern Romania. It is composed of two villages, Brașca and Ilișești. The commune was called Ciprian Porumbescu (with Ilișești as its center) and included the villages of Bălăceana and Ciprian Porumbescu until 2004, when these were split off to form separate communes.

History

[edit]

During the 1780s, 12 ethnic-German families settled in Ilișești in the course of the Josephine colonization.[2] These ethnic Germans were part of the then-emerging Bukovina German community which formed in the historical region of Bukovina during the Habsburg period under Austria-Hungary.
