Fortress Oreshek

The fortress of Oreshek was founded in 1323 by Prince Yuri Danilovich, the eldest son of Daniil Alexandrovich and grandson of Alexander Nevsky. The fortress is located on Orekhovy Island at the source of the Neva River, opposite the city of Shlisselburg, Leningrad Oblast. The stronghold was erected in order to protect the Novgorod lands from the increased expansion of the Swedes.

The fortress is an elongated polygon with seven towers around the perimeter: Korolevaya, Golovina, Flagnaya, Golovkina, Sovereign, Menshikova and Bezymyannaya (the last two towers have not been preserved). The head tower was built in the 16th century, it is the most powerful of the fortress towers. Three towers were also built that defended the inner citadel: Svetlichnaya, Bell and Mill. Of the towers of the citadel, only the Svetlichnaya Tower has survived.

History

Poet Sergei Yesenin, his friends and monument to Pushkin, Detsky Selo, 1924

1714: German architect Johann Braunstein carries out construction in Peterhof, Oranienbaum, Strelna and Tsarskoye Selo

In 1714, the German architect Schluter died in St. Petersburg just a year after arriving in Russia. His place was taken by the assistant Johann Friedrich Braunstein, who came with him, who supervised the construction of Kronstadt until the 1720s. Under his leadership, most of the civil buildings of the city of that time were built.

in 1714-1716 he was responsible for all construction in Peterhof. In 1716-1719 he worked in Peterhof under the guidance of the French architect J.-B.-A. Leblona. After the death of Leblon, Braunstein continued to work on his projects, but in the early 1720s he again found himself in the background, behind the Italian architect Nicolo Michetti. Braunstein's attempt in 1722 to remove Michetti failed.

Braunstein had a great influence on the urban planning of Kronstadt, where he built the Italian Palace, and also worked in Oranienbaum (Great Menshikovsky Palace), Strelna, Tsarskoye Selo (Great Catherine Palace).

In the eyes of his contemporaries, Brownstein's successes were overshadowed by his intrigues; already in 1725 he was removed from Peterhof, during the reign of Peter II he received a resignation from buildings in the Chancellery, was dismissed from Russian service on January 16, 1728, and in February 1728 left for Germany.
