Yaroslavl is an ancient town located 260 kilometers northwest of Moskow. In 1010 Prince Yaroslav the Wise founded a fortress on the spot known as Medvezhi Ugol where the Kotorosl River falls into the Volga. Yaroslavl developed rapidly because of its favorable location along the Volga trade route. In 1218 it became the capital of the independent feudal Yaroslavl principality. In 1463 the Principality merged with the Moscow state. During the XVII century Yaroslavl became a port of entry into Russia, and the city advanced to the third place after Moscow and Kazan as a center of trade. Yaroslavl reached the peak of its development. It was then that the architectural ensembles went up to make Yaroslavl one of the most beautiful cities of old Russia with churches rich in frescoes and ceramic ornamentation. During the XVIII century the city retained its importance as an economic and cultural center. The first Russian theatre was established in Yaroslavl by Fyodor Volkov, and the first Russian provincial magazine had its origins here in 1786.
