Walking sightseeing tour of Pskov covering all historical periods (without visiting the Kremlin)
Description:
Meeting place: Lenin Square 1 at the monument to Lenin.
In the historical part of Pskov, a large number of monuments of different periods are concentrated. From the Trade Square (now Lenin Square), I will take you along the main historical street of Velikolukska (Soviet). Here you will see the temples of the Pskov architectural school, merchant chambers of the XVII century with their appearance more like fortresses, and you will see the quarter, where business life of the city was concentrated in the provincial Pskov. You will see the largest tower in Russia and Europe of the XVI century and the Pokrovsky Corner itself, where the fiercest battles took place during the six-month siege of Pskov by the troops of the Polish King Stefan Batory.
