Ogra (Hungarian: Marosugra or colloquially Ugra, pronounced: [ˈmɒroʃuɡrɒ]) is a commune in Mureș County, Transylvania, Romania. It is composed of five villages: Dileu Vechi (Oláhdellő), Giuluș (Gyulas), Lăscud (Lackod), Ogra, and Vaideiu (Mezőújfalu).
The commune is on the Transylvanian Plateau, on the banks of the Mureș River. It is in the southwestern part of the county, 22 km (14 mi) from the county seat, Târgu Mureș. The A3 motorway connects Ogra to Brașov (Cristian), 160.1 km (99.5 mi) to the southeast and Cluj-Napoca (Gilău), 89.7 km (55.7 mi) to the northwest. The Târgu Mureș International Airport is 8.7 km (5.4 mi) to the east.
As of 2011, the commune had a population of 2,387, 45.3% Romanians, 29.2% Roma, and 21.3% Hungarians.
Haller Castle was originally built in the seventeenth century, although most of the current building dates from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and is Post-Baroque.[1] It was nationalized by the Communist authorities in 1949, and served for a while as a school and then town hall; since 2011 it functions as a hotel and restaurant.
The Ogra mine is a large salt mine in the commune.
