The Kremlin in Moscow has been established as the center of Russian politics and culture since the 15th century. Especially in the Kremlin Museum, which was built for Alexandre I in 1806, there are 100,000 treasures called "the Miracles of Kremlin" that were collected over 500 years since the era of the Ivan Empire in the 15th century. Since that time, many studios were opened and by the 17th century, the Kremlin was in a golden age of producing crafts and weapons. The Kremlin is also known as "the Armory" for having Russia's biggest and oldest factory for weapons.
This exhibition includes 230 works of craft, jewelry, textile, painting and so on from the 12th to the early 20th century. This is the first event in Japan that gives an overview of the great history of the Kremlin.
