Cannon yard of Kazan Kremlin, Artillery complex in Kazan Kremlin, Russia
The Cannon Yard features a collection of antique artillery pieces arranged within the stone walls of Kazan Kremlin's military section.
The site emerged in the 16th century as a military armory following Ivan the Terrible's conquest of the Kazan Khanate in 1552.
The artillery collection demonstrates the evolution of Russian military engineering through centuries, with cannons representing different historical periods.
Visitors can access the Cannon Yard through guided tours of Kazan Kremlin, with detailed explanations available in multiple languages.
The yard contains the Tsar Cannon, an enormous piece that stands as a symbol of Russian artillery craftsmanship despite never firing in battle.
