Description

The first mention about Kolomna as a town dates back to 1177. It was a town in the border between Ryazan' Principality and Vladimir Principality, both were powerful countries of those times. In XIII AD Tatar troops invaded in Russian territories but the princes didn't want to join and led their own armies which were beaten. In 1238 Tatar got Kolomna and completely destroyed it, and the town was empty over some years. In 1301 Kolomna became a town in Moscow Principality and the town is still in Moscow region (Moskovskaya oblast'). In XIV century Kolomna became the one of Orthodox Church center. In 1380 there was famous Kulikovskaya battle with Tatar and Russian troops had a win. Russian army was gathered in Kolomna from different Russian fields and then moved to the enemies.
