Tula Kremlin, Stone fortress in Tula, Russia.

The Tula Kremlin stands as a defensive structure with thick walls, nine towers, and two cathedrals within its six-hectare territory.

Construction of the stone fortress began in 1514 under Vasily III, replacing an earlier wooden structure to protect Moscow's southern boundaries.

The Assumption Cathedral inside the kremlin features five golden domes and houses exhibitions of military artifacts and regional art collections.

Visitors enter through the green-domed Odoyevskikh Tower and can access the ramparts for views of the surrounding Tula cityscape.

During the 1607 siege, enemies created a dam that flooded the fortress, forcing the rebels inside to surrender after four months.
