The Moldova River is a river in Romania, in the historical region of Moldavia. The river comes up from a crest of Bukovina in Suceava County and joins the Siret River near the city of Roman in Neamţ County.
The river gave its name to the Principality of Moldavia. The first capital, Târgul Moldovei (now Baia), is on the Moldova River.
