Manuc's Inn is the best preserved of Bucharest's
old inns. It was built around 1808 to shelter travelling merchants. The inn is also one of Bucharest's historical
building. Its owner, an influential Armenian called Emanuel Marzaian (better know as Manuc Bey hence the name of the
place) offered the building for the signing in 1812 of the treaty that ended the Russo-Turkish war and resulted in
the gain of Bessarabia by Russia. The treaty is known as the Treaty of Bucharest (1812). The building has the two
tier galleries featured by the caravanserais that were common all over the Otoman Empire. Today, Manuc's Inn functions
as a hotel-restaurant and winecellar. Address: Str Franceza 64.
