The oldest secular building in Suceava still standing is this inn that can be traced back to the 1600s.

Hanul Domnesc was originally the property of Miron Barnovschi, the Lord of Moldavia who donated it to be converted into an inn to entertain members of the court, distinguished merchants and foreign dignitaries.

After Moldavia was annexed by the Habsburg Empire in 1775 the building became a hunting lodge for members of the imperial family and the court.
