Sights of Kiev
Kyiv Fortress Museum (Kosoi Kaponir) |
| This part of the city's fortifications was built in 1844, although the structure's history probably has more do with defenseless people. It was here that supporters of the tsar carried out executions of political prisoners, including the leaders of a Polish rebellion, in the 1860s. At the beginning of the 20th century, participants in a revolt of the Kyiv Pioneer Regiment met the same fate. Also during this time, ammunition and weapons were stored in this semi-underground fortress with solid brick and stone walls. Open 10:00 - 17:00. Closed Fridays. Admission 3 hr. Hospital'na str. 24A Tel: 235 01 46 |
