Chitila is a town in the west of Ilfov county, Romania, situated 9 km to the north west of the Municipality of Bucharest. It is often seen as a satellite town of Bucharest.
According to archaeological discoveries made in the area, presumably in the village Chitila human settlements existed since ancient times. Thus, the excavations on the banks of the river Colentina (adjacent village), have revealed remains from the fourth century AD, a furnace for melting bronze, bones found in sites for pillboxes dug during the Second World War, and so on.
