The walls of the Zaraisk Kremlin for #BrickSaturday - SevenDaysOutside Challenge!

in #bricksaturday6 years ago

Hello Steemians!
Hi friends!

I'm writing this post for # SevenDiceUtside from @erikah  

The theme of today is bricks and I will show the walls and towers of the Zaraisk Kremlin.

Zaraysk is one of the oldest Russian cities. The first mention of it refers to the XII century. It is located 150 km southeast of Moscow.

The Zaraisk Kremlin was built in the first half of the 16th century by order of Vasily III and was a part of the southern defensive belt of Moscow.

A feature of the Kremlin is that it is the smallest Kremlin in Russia, its area is only 2.3 hectares. He is also "regular", i.e. has the right form, which is also a rarity.

The Kremlin is brick-built, it is lined with white stone on the outside, it has 7 towers, 4 of them are corner towers and 3 towers with a gate for passage.

Очень интересно. А кроме стен там есть что-то еще интересное?

Внутри кремля действующая церковь, еще одна, более старая, сейчас на реставрации и музей. Сам Зарайск приятный провинциальный городок, в котором при желании можно найти интересное.

Может как-нибудь и доберемся :)

Удачи)

Looks like the Kremlin in Nizhny Novgorod or Pskov. And apart from the wall, there is something inside?

Inside the Kremlin there are two churches, a museum, a priest's house

Yes, I looked on the Internet, interesting place. Thank you!
