he history of the Shlisselburg Fortress Oreshek goes back almost 700 years. In the vicinity of St. Petersburg, there is hardly another monument with such a rich history, which, as in a mirror, reflected the history of the formation of the Russian state.
During the 17th – 18th centuries, the Oreshek Fortress was at the center of dramatic events in Russian history. In 1612, after a long siege, the fortress was captured by the Swedes, and for 90 years it was under the rule of the Swedish crown. In 1702, the young Tsar Peter I returned the fortress to Russia. In October 1702, Russian troops under the leadership of Boris Petrovich Sheremetyev took the fortress in the course of many hours of bloody assault. Noteburg was renamed into Shlisselburg - "key-city". Bastions and curtains built according to the fortification science of the 18th century remind of the era of Peter in the fortress.
