      🌅 Kuntsevo hillfort (Kuntsevskoye Gorodishche)

      Суворовский парк, над Филёвской набережной

      A cape overgrown with old forest, with the remains of a settlement of the Dyakovo culture of the early Iron Age.

      • The first inhabitants appeared here in the 6th–5th centuries BC; in the 11th–13th centuries the Vyatichi lived on the cape.
      • The hillfort's platform is 72 m long and 20–30 m wide; the ramparts and ditches are still visible.
      • In the 13th–16th centuries the Church of the Intercession "on the Gorodishche" stood here; it was ruined in the Time of Troubles.
      • In the 1840s Ivan Zabelin found a gravestone here dated 1557.
      • The place was called "Accursed" and thought to be a pagan shrine; a landowner's "stone woman" once stood here in the hollow of an elm.
