Dmitrov, Medieval fortress city in Moscow Oblast, Russia
Located 65 kilometers north of Moscow, Dmitrov extends along the Yakhroma River banks and features a white stone kremlin with fortified walls.
Founded in 1154 by Grand Duke Yuri Dolgoruky, Dmitrov gained importance as a strategic point between Moscow, Tver, and Pereslavl-Zalessky during the 13th century.
The Assumption Cathedral within the kremlin walls displays traditional Russian religious architecture with its golden domes and intricate stone carvings.
The town connects to Moscow through regular train services from Dmitrov station, while the Moscow Canal provides commercial shipping capabilities.
The Nikolsky Gate, part of the kremlin complex, contains a museum dedicated to the local history from medieval times through the Soviet period.
