About Yuryev-Polsky
Yuryev-Polsky is in the field region (Vladimirskoe Opolye) on the banks of the tiny river Koloksha, the left tributary of the Klyazma. The land near the town is almost flat. There are no natural fortifications, and the spot is quite unpractical from the medieval point of view. The choice of this location was motivated by the agricultural importance of the region and the huge trading activity during the Middle Ages: the roads fromVladimir,Suzdal,Pereslavl Zalessky, andRostov Velikycrossed here. The town has lost its hub position. It stands on a minor railway line, far away from any big roads. Yuryev-Polsky is in the geographical center of theGolden Ring, but the lack of transport connections prevents most travellers from visiting the town. Yuryev-Polsky was founded in 1152 by Prince Yury Do
