History
The locality was mentioned for the first time in 1409 as Lucafalva. During its history, there were several military raids carried out against the village which also sustained a lot from flooding. After the break-up of Austria-Hungary at the end of World War I and the Hungarian–Romanian War of 1918–19, the village became part of the Kingdom of Romania, under the name Luca. As a result of the Second Vienna Award it became a part of the Kingdom of Hungary between 1940 and 1945. Since then Gheorghe Doja has been part of Romania. In 1952, it was named after György Dózsa, who led a peasants' revolt against landed nobility at the beginning of the 16th century.
