Castles are quite a rare architectural feature for Russia. There are plenty of churches, fortified hermitages, well-preserved military fortresses and ancient manors of the nobility, but the castles are the great wonder (really yet to seek).

Here you can see three castles, but can you really guess which one is located in Russia?

The trip was postponed several times during the two long years, and who knows, maybe the arrived mellow autumn gave us a shove to go finally. Here it is – the château in th
