According to legend, the monastery of Hîncu was built by the Moldavian boyar Mihalcea Hîncu (17th century) after he and his daughter Paraschiva escaped from the Tartars. During his escape, he had sworn to build a monastery if they escaped. The monastery is now in the place where the escape succeeded. It was not until 1835 that the monastery, until then mainly made of wood, was equipped with stone buildings. From 1956 to 1990, the monastery was closed by the Soviet Union and the site was used as a recreation centre by the Ministry of Health. Since its reopening, the monastery has undergone extensive repairs.
