Srednyaya Arsenalnaya Tower
Srednyaya Arsenalnaya Tower, Fortified tower at Moscow Kremlin, Russia.
The Srednyaya Arsenalnaya Tower rises 41 meters high on the northwest side of the Kremlin wall, featuring a rectangular structure with decorative brickwork.
Built between 1493 and 1495, the tower replaced a previous corner fortification from the time of Dmitry Donskoy's reign in medieval Moscow.
The tower represents Russian medieval military architecture with its three-tiered structure, cylindrical vaults, and wall staircases connecting different levels.
Visitors can observe the tower's architectural details while walking through Alexander Garden, which extends along the western Kremlin wall.
The structure contains an entertainment grotto at its base, designed by architect Osip Bove in 1821 during the development of Alexander Garden.
