Suceava has created an historical village that demonstrates how the houses throughout Romania would have been built throughout the past several hundred years. The village included the homes of weavers, blacksmiths, water millers, tavern tenders, ceramic crafters, etc. The village also included a church and school. Each of the homes were furnished with Romanian styled furnishings. The clothes, bedspreads, curtains and other materials were also staged throughout the rooms in these buildings.
Only a couple hundred feet away is a fortress that was the home of kings that served the Bucovonia region. The oldest desctiption of the fortress dates back to 1476. In 1564, one of the princes named Alexandru partially destroyed the fortresswhen he left the region so that his enemies could not make use of it without major reconstruction. Many battles took place here at the Moldovian Fortress and housed those who fought for their princes and kings.
Among the kings and princes that served Moldova where the Suceava fortress was located included Stephen the Great, his legitimate son Bogdan III, and eventually his illegitimate son Peter Rares. Many others ruled as well, but these men had ruled simultaneous to the time Luther was alive and living in Germany.
Enjoy the pictures.

Luther Quote of the Day
“God wants us to pray, and he wants to hear our prayers—not because we are worthy, but because he is merciful.”
