Wiki: The Fortress of Suceava (Cetatea de Scaun a Sucevei) is a 14th-century fortification located in the city of Suceava, Romania. The fortress was built in the late 1300s by Moldavian ruler Peter Mușat (Petru II). Prince Mușat built the fortress to serve as his fortified residence and to protect the new Moldavian capital of Suceava from the threat posed by the Ottoman empire. Throughout its long history, the fortress underwent numerous repairs and many modifications that strengthened it against vulnerabilities.

Over the nearly two hundred years since it was first erected, the fortress served as the residence for some of the most powerful and influential voivodes (rulers) of Moldavia. Some of the most famous rulers who lived within the fortress include Stephen the Great, Alexander the Good, Petru Rareș, and Vasile Lupu. The fortress has been the site of some of the bloodiest battles in Moldavia.
