history

Church of the Protection and Intercession

The city is first mentioned in an ancient Russian chronicle in 1137. In 1238 the then largest city on the Pronja Isheslavl was destroyed by the Mongols and hardly rebuilt. In the 14th century, the city of Mikhailov succeeded in taking supremacy in the Upper Pronja region. It became an important citadel in the south of Russia in the 16th century when Tsar Ivan the Fourth had the new fort built here in 1546. The great importance of the fortress for all of Russia was proven in the two Polish sieges in 1610 and 1618, which were unsuccessful. Only after 1710 did the city lose its military importance and the fortress was finally demolished towards the end of the 18th century.

Today Mikhailov is a district town in the Ryazan region in the border between three regions. The Mikhailov fabric, which has been known in the city since the Middle Ages, has now become a symbol of the city and is featured in almost every article about the city.
