Roman

The Moldova River defines the setting of Roman — its broad lowland corridor gives this eastern Romanian city an open, river-country character, close to the Siret confluence. Roman developed in medieval Moldavia and takes its name from Voivode Roman I, who ruled at the end of the 14th century. The Roman-Vodă Monastery, associated with that early Moldavian foundation, preserves a church rebuilt in the 16th century under Petru Rareș. Streets around the centre combine everyday civic life with Orthodox and Catholic institutions, reflecting the city’s place in the historical region of Moldavia.
