Fortress of Saint Elizabeth

Castle / fortress

The defensive ramparts of the fortress of St. Elizabeth, which started Kropyvnytskyi, are located near the current city center.

Founded in 1754, the fortress bears the name of Saint Elizabeth, the heavenly patron of the Russian Empress Elizabeth. The ramparts of the fortress are built in the form of a star-shaped polygon, the ends of which are sharp bastions.

The Elizabethan fortress served as the headquarters of the Russian military command in the south of Ukraine, a stronghold of Russian influence in the Zaporizhzhia lands and a center of struggle against the Haydamak movement. In 1769, the fortress withstood the siege of the Turkish-Tatar army of Khan Crimea-Girey. After the end of this stage of the Russo-Turkish war and after the liquidation of the Zaporizhzhia Sich, in 1775 the Elizabeth fortress lost its military and strategic importance, and in 1784 it was disarmed.

However, the unique earthen fortification structure has survived to this day. The barracks in which the regiment of General Mykhaylo Kutuzov was stationed at the end of the 18th century have also been partially preserved. A memorial sign was installed - ancient guns.

On the territory there is a memorial to the Eternal Flame at the military cemetery of those who died during the Second World War.
