Pskov Kremlin (Krom)

Pskov Kremlin (Krom) occupies a strategically advantageous position on a high cape at the confluence of the rivers Pskova and Velikaya. Its fortress walls, reaching heights of 6-8 meters and stretching almost a kilometer long, protect an area of about 3.5 hectares. Here is located the Приказная палата with an exhibition on the administrative structure of the region from the 17th to 18th centuries, as well as the archaeological museum Dovmont's Town. From the viewing platform in the Vlaskовская tower there is a picturesque view of the surroundings. Seven towers of the Kremlin bear traces of a multi-century history that endured 26 sieges without falling under enemy control.
