Kremlin of Kolomna - map, description, photo, routes

The strong stone Kremlin of Kolomna was erected during 1525-31, literally 10 years after the new walls of red brick were finished in the Moscow Kremlin. Kolomna was the second signif-icant city of Moscow area and the most important outpost of defense against the raids from the south. It was for this reason that such strong fortifications were constructed in this place.
