History and culture

Perhaps the most interesting period in the history of Klin is associated with Ancient Rus .For the first time the settlement is mentioned in documents in the 14th century, in the Nikon Chronicle .Originally the city was a fortress that is part of the Vladimir-Suzdal principality, remarkable monuments of its architecture and to this day is the national wealth of Russia .Later, as a result of the ongoing struggle for power in the Middle Ages, Klin became a member of the Tver principality, and afterwards was added to Moscow .Since the city was an intermediate link on the trade route between the golden-domed and Veliky Novgorod, it quickly became a large handicraft and trade center .Numerous bloody massacres, tragedies, ups and downs fell on the fate of Klin .Some of them were reflected in religious architecture, in particular in the famous Assumption Church .

The first coat of arms appeared in the city of Klin only in 1871. It was a picture of a postman with a horn jumping on a horse, on a white background.

Civil architecture

City shopping arcades erected on the site of more ancient, wooden, the mayor's house, the store under the clock will remind us of our forgotten history.
