On Pskov cityscapes of the XIXth – XXth centuries. Pskov is one of the oldest cities in Russia. Among its Christian sights are, for example, Trinity Cathedral, founded in 1138 and rebuilt in the 1690s; the Mirozhsky Monastery (completed by 1152), famous for its 12th-century frescoes, St. John's (completed by 1243); the Snetogorsky monastery (built in 1310 and stucco-painted in 1313). Pskov is exceedingly rich in tiny, squat, picturesque churches, dating mainly from the 15th and the 16th centuries.
