TEXT C: RED SQUARE
Red Square has witnessed many important events in the life of Russian people. Though time has changed
the face of Red Square it has remained the main square and the heart of the city.
Visitors from home and abroad stream here to enjoy the beauty of the historic buildings and monuments
of which the Kremlin comes first. The Kremlin represents centuries of Russian history and one is usually
struck by the austere and powerful appearance of its walls and towers.
Like the Tower of London the Kremlin was used as a fortress and a sovereigns residence. Now it houses
the Presidents office and a number of museums including the Armory Chamber and the Diamond Fund.
In the centre of the square by the Kremlin wall is the Lenin Mausoleum, erected in 1930 by A. Shchusev.
The architect interpreted the traditions of the pyramids in a modern way and have the monument a laconic
architectural form which was popular in the twenties. Behind the Mausoleum there is a necropolis of
some outstanding statesmen and political leaders.
On the southern side of Red Square is St. Basils Cathedral (Vasily Blazheny), a masterpiece of ancient
Russian architecture. It was built in 1555-61 in memory of the victory over Kazan (1552). The monument
standing in front of the Cathedral tells us of the peoples victory over the Polish invaders in 1612. The
inscription on the monument reads: To Citizen Minin and Prince Pozharsky from a grateful Russia. The
monument is the work of I. Martos (1752-1835). Not far from the Cathedral is what is called the Lobnoye
Mesto, a platform of white stone more than 400 years old. The tsars edicts were proclaimed there and
public executions carried out. To the right of the Cathedral on the territory of the Kremlin we can see a
tall tower, more like a column, over 80 meters high. It is the Bell Tower of Ivan the Great built in the 15 th
century. There are twenty-two large bells and over thirty small ones in it. For centuries the eastern side of
Red Square had been associated with trading. The first stone shops were built here in the 16th century.
Today on their site stands the State Department Store, better known as GUM.
If we walk up from St. Basils to the opposite end of the square we face a red brick building. This is the
History Museum. In the west Red Square is adjoining the Kremlin. Just on the other side of the Kremlin
wall we can see the building of the former Senate, an outstanding architectural monument built by Matvei
Kasakov (1738-1813), now the seat of the Administration of the President. The main and tallest tower of
the Kremlin is the Spasskaya tower. It has long since become one of the symbols of Moscow. People all
over Russia listen to the Kremlin clock on the Spasskaya tower striking midnight and it seems to them
that they are listening to the beating of the heart of our capital.
