Väga ilus, pisut Disney'liku ehitusega, mõis ümbruskondsete põldude keskel. Maja ümbritseb ühelt poolt korda tehtud aed ja teiselt poolt vana mõisapark. Tasub vaadata. Kuna tegemist on eramaaga, siis ilma loata hoovi minna ei soovita.

Astrakhan Kremlin

For centuries, the Astrakhan Kremlin was inapproachable stronghold in the south-eastern border of the Russia. The first construction of the Kremlin began in 1587-1588 under the guidance of I.G. Vorodkov, a lector of Discharge Order. He laid the first wooden fortress with powerful solid walls and towers. The place of construction was chosen on the hill, known as “Rabbit” or “Zayachii” in Russian.

During the reign of Ivan IV The Terrible and Boris Godunov the wooden fortress was rebuilt into a stone one. For the development of Kremlin walls and towers state-owned official masters were headed from Moscow to Astrakhan. For best results executives used the old, but very strong Tatar plinths which were brought from the ruins of the cities of the Golden Horde towns. Stone citadel was built by the type of Moscow Kremlin.

However, in the beginning of 20th century after the October Revolution access to the Kremlin was closed.
