Соборная гора
Mountain
Open Details
Arriving at the Sobornaya Hill, we get to the historical center of the city. The Serpukhov Kremlin used to stand here, but today only fragments of the fortress are left of it. However, it does not mean that there is nothing to see here. On this mountain still stands the first church of the city - Trinity Cathedral, which is active. Next to the temple there is a memorial to the fallen in the battle of Kulikovo field and during World War II.
