Dovmontova Tower, Pskov, Medieval defense tower in Pskov, Russia.
The stone structure features thick walls, strategic observation points, and traditional architectural elements characteristic of Russian military fortifications from medieval times.
Built during the reign of Prince Dovmont in the 13th century, this defensive tower formed an essential part of Pskov's protection system against foreign invasions.
The tower represents a significant transition period in Russian military architecture, demonstrating the shift from wooden to stone fortification construction methods.
Visitors can access the tower site through guided tours that explain its historical significance and architectural features within the context of medieval Pskov.
