Moscow

Kremlin

Description:

At the end of the 15th century, Moscow became the capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow and Ivan the Third decided to turn the Kremlin into a magnificent residence. Then the walls and towers of the Kremlin were built, which have survived to this day.

Today, heads of state are invited to the Kremlin, ambassadors present their credentials in the Kremlin, and the office of the Russian president is located in the Kremlin.

The name comes from the ancient Russian word "silicon" - fortress. At first, the Kremlin was wooden, and only in the XIV century, after countless fires, by order of Dmitry Donskoy became white-stone. The Kremlin acquired its modern appearance only in the XVI century - its walls and towers were reinforced and lined with red brick, the number of towers - 20
