With its breathtaking magnificence and mysterious, impenetrable aura, the Kremlin is the most remarkable symbol of power in Russia. The oldest part of this imposing complex, whose name means "Fortress", was built in the 13th century. The original building was gradually enlarged over the centuries, some of the additions being intended for religious purposes while others were built to house public offices or as private apartments for the Tsar and his family, until it eventually resembled a small town.
The most fascinating part of this vast complex is the Terem Palace. The ground floor houses the workshops where craftsmen wove fabrics and made the ceremonial dress, the clothes and the linen for the rulers, while the upper floors housed the state rooms and private apartments of the Imperial Family. This floor was built in 1635-36 on the original part of the palace. Designed and built by Alevisio Fryazin between 1499 and 1508, it is the part of the Kremlin that best reflects the Russian taste for rich decoration and sumptuous furnishings.
