Intercession Fortress

The stone fortification stands at the intersection of major trade routes, featuring defensive walls and military structures designed to protect the Siberian territory.

The fortress, constructed in 1752, served as a strategic outpost during Russian expansion into Siberia and protected trade caravans from nomadic groups.

The fortress represents early Russian military architecture in Siberia and demonstrates the systematic approach to territorial control through strategic fortifications.

The fortress location lies near modern transport connections, including the Trans-Siberian Railway and major highways connecting western Russia with eastern territories.

The structure incorporates architectural elements that reflect both European military engineering principles and adaptations necessary for Siberian climate conditions.
