Căușeni (Шаблон:IPA-ro) is a town and the administrative center of Căușeni District, Moldova.

History

In the 17th and 18th centuries, Căușeni was the capital of the Budjak Horde.

The 17th century Assumption of Our Lady Church is the oldest surviving building in the town.[1] It is set more than Шаблон:Convert below ground level and preserves the only medieval fresco in the Republic of Moldova. Executed by Walachian painters in a late Byzantine-Romanian style, the interiors feature religious scenes and iconography in vibrant reds, gold, and blues.

At one time it was a vibrant Jewish shtetl. In 1897, 45 percent of the population (1,675) was Jewish, most working in agriculture.[2]
