 Vladimir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Most specialists in the history of Vladimir argue there is no archaeological or chronicle information which supports the claim that the city was founded in 990, while several Vladimir patriots feel there is sufficient evidence to support the new date.
After the Mongols, Vladimir never fully recovered, and even though it remained capital through the middle of 14th century and continued as the seat of the metropolitans of Russia, it gradually lost its political significance to the new principalities of Moscow and Nizhny Novgorod.
Modern Vladimir is a part of the Golden ring of the ancient Russian cities and a significant tourist center.
