Veliky Ustyug is situated deep in the Vologda Region close to the confluence of the River Sukhona and River Yug. In fact its name is derived from its location near the mouth (‘ust’ in Russian) of the River Yug, whereas ‘Veliky’ means ‘great’, indicating the city’s historical significance. Its strategic position on important waterways leading to the Russian North meant it was an important trade city for Vladimir-Suzdal, which had to frequently defend it from ambitious Novgorod. In the 14th century Moscow finally gained control in the city but over the following centuries its status declined due to the river trade routes becoming less important.
