Yuryevets, Old town on Volga River, Ivanovo Oblast, Russia
The town of Yuryevets extends over an area of 800 hectares at the meeting point of the Unzha and Volga Rivers at 120 meters elevation.
Prince Yury II established Yuryevets as Yuryev-Povolzhsky in 1225, but Batu Khan's forces destroyed the settlement during their military campaign in 1237.
The town maintains connections to Russian cinema through Andrei Tarkovsky, who lived there during his childhood, and to architecture through the Vesnin brothers.

The population of Yuryevets has decreased from 16,535 residents in 1989 to 7,899 in 2021, reflecting significant demographic changes in the region.
