Veche Square

The right side of the Dovmont`s Town is dominated by the Bell Tower. One can enter the Pskov Kremlin by the Great Gate of this tower. Passing through the gate one get in the so-called zakhab. It is a long winding road between the walls, from which the defenders could fire at the enemy who burst in the city. The zakhab gives to a large square in front of the Trinity Cathedral. It is the Veche Square, which was the political center of the Pskov feudal republic.
