Once More about Yuryev-Polsky
Instead of its name, this town has with Poland nothing to do. “Polsky” means here “Laying in the fields”, in contrast with another Yuryev which is in 80 km from Kiev. Yuryev-Polsky is an old Russian town and the administrative center of Yuryev-Polsky District of Vladimir Oblast, Russia, located in the upper reaches of the Koloksha River, 68 km northwest of Vladimir. It was founded by the same person whose name is associable with Moscow. Instead of Moscow, it was actually Yuri Dolgoruky, who founded Yuryev-Polsky in 1152. The Prince named the town in favorem of him. As it is obvious from the date, Yuryev-Polsky is one of the oldest towns in the central Russia.
