Shaped like a bell and surrounded by 128 bronze figures, this monument to Russia's millennium honors the politicians and other people who most contributed to the development of the country between 862 and 1862.

One of the oldest stone buildings in Russia, this magnificent cathedral is considered to be the symbol of the city, and was once the hiding place for Novgorod's treasury.

Also known as the Chamber of Facets, this is the only Gothic style building in the Detinets, once used for court sessions and now housing a museum with arts and crafts and an interesting icon collection.

Located inside the Detinets, this museum contains an excellent collection of early icon masterpieces from the 11th to 17th centuries, wood crafts and birch bark manuscripts.

This church is most notable for the frescoes inside which were painted by Feofan Grek, one of Russia's most celebrated icon artists.

A part of the Moscow kingdom in the 17th century, the city of Novgorod had begun to adopt Moscow’s architectural style, typified by this cathedral.
