It is the East side

It is the Northeast side. View from rampart

The main entrance tower of the ancient fortress, the wooden Elijah Gates (Ilyinskye Vorota), formerly stood on this spot, adjoined by the wooden walls, running along the top of the earth ramparts. If we entrance into the fortress from the new settlement, we would see on the right, immediately behind the ramparts, the small red Church of the Assumption, built after 1650 on the site of a former wooden Church, and rebuilt in 1720. This somewhat modest, but fine building was restored in 1958 by Alexey Varganov.
