Description
Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 2 hours
* I invite you to get acquainted with the heart of the city - the Pskov Kremlin!
It is this place that is associated with the birth of the city. Here, in the 10th century, one of the first churches in honor of the Holy Trinity in Russia was built, which, according to legend, was built by the Grand Duchess of Russia Olga herself. The Pskov assembly used to be noisy here, office work was carried out, the property of famous citizens and supplies in case of a siege were stored.
There are many interesting facts waiting for you. We will discuss what Krom is and who Krom dogs are, what Pskov residents in the Kremlin called the word "Percy" and what "Rowing" is, we will find ourselves in Zahab, we will understand why the words "veche" and "mutilate" are related, what was called a combination of the words Kutny Bonfire, what and why they are called The Pskov Pompeii, which was stored in the Green Cellars, which of the towers housed the Pskov customs at one time, and much more.
We will certainly visit the Trinity Cathedral, towering over the whole city, learn about its history, admire the rarely seen seven-tiered iconostasis of the cathedral, created at the beginning of the 18th century by the best craftsmen of the country, see miraculous icons, talk about the patron saints of the city, whose relics rest in the cathedral.
We will become so immersed in the history and atmosphere of antiquity that it will begin to seem to us that a guard is about to look around the corner and ask us who we are and why we have come.
