Overview

Situated on the ancient trade route between Central Asia and northern Europe, Novgorod was Russia's first capital in the 9th century.

Its medieval monuments and the 14th-century frescoes of Theophanes the Greek (Andrei Rublev's teacher) illustrate the development of its remarkable architecture and cultural creativity.
