The Moscow kremlin originated in 2nd century BC as a fortified settlement with walls made of earth and wood.
It was first called "kremlin" in the 14th century, when it became the seat of the Russian Grand Dukes (later Tsars). At that time, the first stone structures were built and the oak wall was replaced with a white limestone wall.
The existing red brick walls and towers, which give the Moscow kremlin its distinct outward appearance, were built between 1485 and 1495.
