Izborsk is one of the oldest Russian cities, mentioned in The Tale of Bygone Years. It is also called Old Izborsk, to distinguish it from the north of Novy Izborsk, which was located a few kilometers north of the 19th century, as a station of the then-constructed railway.

The city is only thirty kilometers to the west of Pskov.

Izborsk

"Truvorovo fortified hill" and a fortress on the cape of the Geralav mountains - the main attraction of the city. From the ancient settlement there is a magnificent view of the Gorodischenskoye and Malskoe lakes, and the eastern end of its horseshoe-shaped wall is the ancient St. Nicholas Church.

The fortress is interesting, first of all, its towers: Talavskaya - the only rectangular tower; The tower is the tallest and most powerful; Bell Tower; tower Ryabinovka and Temnushka, from which begins Nikolsky zahab - a long and narrow passage along the southern wall . And, finally, the sixth tower is the oldest - it remained from the old wooden fortress . On the east side near the Bell Tower there is the Cache - inclined a stepped gallery, overlapped with a triangular vault and leading to the well-spring . Inside the fortress, opposite the Bell Tower, is located the beautiful St. Nicholas Cathedral . Photo Izborsk (17)
