Grigore II (1695 – 3 September 1752) was born in Istanbul. He was the grandson of Grigore I of Wallachia. Nicholas Mavrocordatos helped Grigore gain the Moldavian throne, upon Mihai Racoviță's deposition by the Ottoman overlord. He decreased taxes, but chose to continue the established policy of awarding offices to Greeks and Levantines instead of local boyars.
He repaired several monasteries and founded the Frumoasa Monastery and the one at Pantelimon – the church's patron saint, Panteleimon, is the eponym for both the commune Pantelimon, Ilfov, on the edge of Bucharest, and the Pantelimon Quarter of the capital.
