Ivan the Great Bell Tower in the Kremlin

The Bell Tower of Ivan the Great (bell tower "Ivan the Great"), which adorns the Cathedral Square of the Moscow Kremlin, is the dominant of the medieval architectural complex. In addition to the three-tiered tower itself, the ensemble includes the Assumption Belfry and the Filaret extension. The bell tower was built in 1505-1508 according to the plan of the architect from Italy Bon Fryazin. In 1600, having received an additional tier of ringing, the bell tower turned into the tallest building in Moscow. This snow-white 81-meter structure did not lose its position until 1883, when the Cathedral of Christ the Savior was built.
