It was here, in the 17th century, that Tsar Peter the Great laid the foundation of Russia’s Navy; it was here that he built his first battleship “Divine Providence” and other ships for the Azov Campaign. The entire court moved here while the tsar wielded his shipbuilder’s axe at the Voronezh dockyard.
