        17th century. The square was constructed towards the end of the 15th century (around the
        time of Columbus' discovery of America) when Tsar Ivan the Great <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">Ива́н Вели́кий</em></span></strong></span> was building the

        city's defenses. Every major city in Russia would have had a Kremlin, but the Moscow one is
        by far the most famous.</p><p>The square was first called <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">Торг</em></span></strong></span> (Trading Place) and was the site for some very lively
        commerce. Later, in the 16th century, it became known as<span class="bold"><strong>

        honor of the Trinity Cathedral which stood at the southern end of the square. In 1571 the
        square was renamed <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">Пожа́р</em></span></strong></span> (The Fire) after the great fire of that year. Finally,
        the square was named <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">Кра́сная</em></span></strong></span> when it was cleared of all the trading stalls at
        the end of the 17th century. At that time the word <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">кра́сный</em></span>
        </strong></span>(red) meant <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">краси́вый</em></span></strong></span> (beautiful), and had nothing to do with the red
