Yaroslavl Kremlin, Historic fortress district in Yaroslavl, Russia.
The Yaroslavl Kremlin stands on a triangular promontory at the meeting point of the Volga and Kotorosl rivers, enclosed by defensive walls.
Founded in 1010, the fortress served as the administrative center of Yaroslavl until the late 18th century, with its original wooden walls replaced by stone structures.
The Metropolitan Chambers within the Kremlin complex showcase the architectural traditions of 17th-century Russian religious administrative buildings.
Visitors can access the Kremlin grounds daily through the main entrance near Soviet Square, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
The fortress contains eleven restored buildings from different centuries, including two preserved churches and archaeological remains of ancient fortifications.
