Murom - Муром

One of the oldest cities in Russia. - Один из самых древних городов РоссииCreated by: Romanov Empire - Империя РомановыхDated: 1880

Murom is one of the oldest cities in Russia. In the 9th century CE, Murom was the easternmost settlement of the East Slavs in the land of the Finno-Ugric people called Muromians and mentioned as early as 862. A trading post from Volga Bulgaria to the Baltic Sea, it was the capital of an independent principality, whose rulers included Saint Gleb, assassinated in 1015 and canonized in 1071, Saint Prince Konstantin the Blessed, and Saints Peter and Fevronia, subjects of an opera by Rimsky-Korsakov. It was believed to be the hometown of the most celebrated East Slavic epic hero, Ilya Muromets. The Murom-Ryazan was separated from the Chernigov princedom in 1127. Burned to the ground by the Mongols, in 1293 it disappeared from the records until 1351. In 1392, the Grand Duke of Moscow Vasily I Dmitrievich annexed the Murom Principality. Since the XVII century, Murom has become an important handicraft center.

Муром, один из самых древних городов России, упомянут в «Повести временных лет» в 862 году среди городов, подвластных князю Рюрику. Считается, что это родной город самого знаменитого эпического героя Ильи Муромца. Находившийся на торговом пути от Волжской Болгарии до Балтийского моря, город был столицей независимого княжества, чьи правители включали святого Глеба, убитого в 1015 году и канонизированного в 1071 году, святого князя Константина Блаженного и святых Петра и Февронии, героев оперы Римского-Корсакова. В 1096 году Муром стал объектом междоусобной Муромской войны. Сожжённый дотла монголами, Муром в 1293 году исчез со страниц летописей до 1351 года. В 1392 году великий князь московский Василий I Дмитриевич присоединил Муромское княжество к Москве. С XVII века Муром становится важным ремесленным центром.
