What travelers say:

Traveling to Russia, this stop came to the capital Moscow. When we visited the Kremlin, we saw this armoury building, we didn't go in, we just looked at the exterior of the building opposite. As a fighting nation, the armoury is definitely a significant place, founded in 1508 as the armoury of the Russian royal family, responsible for producing, purchasing and storing weapons, accessories and the czar's various daily necessities. In 1806, Alexander I ordered the armoury to be converted into Moscow's first public museum, but the collection was not open to the public until seven years later. It is one of the oldest museums in Moscow.
