Uglich Kremlin

Reviewed By bulldogspikesmom - Minneapolis, United States

If you take a riverboat trip through Russia, as we did, you will stop here in Uglich. I highly recommend the visit. The Cathedral of St. Dmitri on the Blood commemorates the murder of Ivan the Terrible's 9 year old son in 1591 with amazing frescoes. The official version was that Prince Dmitry was staying at the log house just next door to the church ( which, of course, wasn't there at the time) when he "accidentally stabbed himself while having an epileptic seizure" outdoors, a few steps from his house. Riiiiight! Conveniently, Dmitiry's death cleared the way for Boris Godunov to usurp the throne. The church was built on the spot where Dmitry died. In addition to the Cathedral are several other interesting old buildings in what was the original Kremlin ( or fortress) of Uglich. As you walk back down toward the boat landing, you will go through an excellent market with all kinds of really nice things to buy - fur hats and scarves, linens, sweaters, t-shirts and all kinds of stuff. Since I like to do my Christmas shopping while traveling, I was able to find wonderful things at the Uglich market.
