Arkhangel’sk, Russia
Arkhangelsk Gostiny Dvor
The Merchant Court is a network of fortified depots built on the Pur-Navolok promontory in Arkhangelsk by a team of German and Dutch masons between 1668 and 1684. Only the northern tower of the original structure and parts of the western wall facing the Northern Dvina still stand. In the 17th century Arkhangelsk handled more than half of the country's exports.
