Early Vaslui History
Orthodox Church in Vaslui
The name of the settlement of Vaslui was first mentioned in 1435, in
connection with the accession of Prince Iliaş to the Moldavian throne.
The
town was burned to the ground in 1439 and 1440, when Tatars invaded
Moldavia. In 1475, Moldavian Prince Stephen the Great reputedly won his
greatest battle against the Ottoman Empire in the Vaslui area (see Battle
of Vaslui).
There once was a fairly large Jewish community in the city of Vaslui.
However, waves of pogroms, associated with the Holocaust as well as
emigration to Israel during Romania's communist period largely diminished
its presence.
