Editing Kremlin (fortification) (section)

== Outside Russia ==
After the disintegrations of the [[Kievan Rus]], the [[Russian Empire]] and the [[Soviet Union|USSR]], some fortresses considered Kremlin-type, remained beyond the borders of modern Russia. Some are listed below:
* [[Belz]], Ukraine (only traces)
* [[Kyiv]], Ukraine (reconstructed [[Golden Gate, Kiev|tower of the Golden Gate]])<!--- Kyiv was a capital of Ancient Rus. Its fortress was a "kremlin", too. --->
* [[Putyvl]], Ukraine
* [[Novhorod-Siverskyi]], Ukraine
* [[Chernihiv]], Ukraine (only traces)
* [[Kamyanyets]], Belarus (shafts and [[Tower of Kamyanyets|Belaya Vezha tower]])
* [[Belgorod Kievsky]], Ukraine (now village Belgorodka)

The same structure in [[Novgorod Land|Novgorodshina]], [[Ukraine]] and other Old Russian territories is also called [[Detinets|dytynets]] ({{langx|uk|дитинець}}, from ''dytyna'' – child). The term has been in use since the 11th century. The term ''kremlin'' first appeared in 14th century in various Russian territories, where it replaced ''dytynets''.

Many Russian [[monasteries]] have been built in a fortress-like style similar to that of a kremlin. For a partial list, see [[:Category:Monasteries in Russia|Monasteries in Russia]].
