Rublenyy Gorod
Yaroslavl, Russia, Russia
Rublenyy Gorod, meaning "Log City," refers to the original wooden kremlin (fortress) of Yaroslavl, Russia, founded around 1010 by Prince Yaroslav the Wise on the strategic Volga-Kotorosl confluence cape previously occupied by Finno-Ugric settlements. Constructed from logs as Yaroslavl's fortified core, it served as the political and defensive heart during the Rostov Principality era, expanding beyond its walls by the 11th century amid events like the 1071 pagan priest revolt during famine. Destroyed by fires and invasions, it was gradually rebuilt in stone from the 16th century, with remnants integrated into the modern historical center now a UNESCO site, symbolizing Yaroslavl's millennium as Russia's first Volga city.
