        • The dam on the Iset was completed on 11 September 1723 — the city’s history is counted from it and from the state ironworks.
        • Construction began on the decision of Vasily Tatishchev and was finished under Georg Wilhelm de Hennin.
        • It was designed by Leonty Zlobin, the dam master of the Nevyansk ironworks: a log frame packed with stone and clay.
        • The Main Prospekt — now Prospekt Lenina — was laid along the axis of the dam.
        • In 1972–1973 the dam was faced with granite and decorated with bas-reliefs about the Ural metalworkers.
        • In 1998 a passage was made under the dam from the lower terrace of the square — the builders were surprised at how well the old structure had survived.
