Episcopal Palace, Religious landmark in Suzdal Kremlin, Russia
The Episcopal Palace is a building in the Suzdal Kremlin with carved windows overlooking the courtyard. Inside, a cruciform hall with high vaults served as the main reception room.
The palace began in the late 15th century and grew larger during the 16th century. The expansion added a house church to accommodate royal visits.
This was once the seat of bishops who governed the church and received important visitors here. The space shows how religious authority was exercised in medieval Russia.
The building is now part of the Vladimir-Suzdal Museum and displays exhibitions about the city's history. Visitors should allow time to walk through the rooms and view the collections.
A bell in the tower chimes every minute, marking the passage of time in this historic place. The palace also houses artworks from the 17th century that many visitors overlook.
