Kostroma Kremlin, Medieval fortress in Kostroma, Russia
The Kostroma Kremlin occupies a high hill on the left bank of the Volga River, featuring white stone walls and multiple defensive towers.
The fortress moved to its current elevated location in 1416 after numerous attacks by Novgorod raiders destroyed the original wooden fortifications.
The Cathedral of the Epiphany with its bell tower, rebuilt between 2015 and 2023, serves as the main religious center of the Kostroma region.
The former kremlin territory now contains the Central Park of Culture and Recreation, providing recreational space for residents and visitors.
Archaeological research revealed that the initial settlement stood at the mouth of the Sula River, contrary to local historians' long-held beliefs.
