Pskov, whose webcams are available online on this site, is one of the oldest cities in Russia.
The first mention of it dates back to the X century. And today it attracts an incredible number of travelers not only from Russia, but also from other countries. The local streets, with their architectural monuments, museums, and even nature itself literally breathe antiquity, tell about great historical events and achievements.
The visiting card of the city is the Pskov Kremlin (or Krom). It is located in the place where two rivers merge – the Great and Pskov, which gave the name to this locality. The ancient walls stand on a high bank. And the total territory of the fortress reaches 3 hectares.
The construction of the Pskov Kremlin started at the end of the XI century, the height of its powerful walls reaches 8 meters, and the length is 1 km.
To this day, many architectural sights have been preserved on the territory of the Kremlin. These are Dovmontov city, Zahab, the front wall of Persha, Wards, outbuildings, a hotel. The center of the fortification ensemble is the snow-white Trinity Cathedral with a high bell tower, which was erected at the end of the XVII century. To this day, seven Kremlin towers have been perfectly preserved, which give the complex recognition.
Rybnitskaya is located right above the Holy Gate and was named the same as the Rybniki shopping district. Vlasevskaya, covered with a high wooden tent, for some time served as a customs point. And the Kutekrom tower has such an unusual name because of its angular location. Literally , it is translated like this: "In the corner of the Krom (Kremlin)".
Of particular interest is Dovmontov city, which was named after the Pskov prince, who ruled these lands in the XIII century. Once the complex was a fortification annex to the Kremlin. 17 temples were built here, the foundations of which were discovered relatively recently. Archaeological research and restoration is carried out here to this day. Nearby you can visit a small historical museum, which presents a realistic layout of the Kremlin complex.
