Eastern Barbican

This fortification is composed of two squared towers of grey stone and of a main rectangular building. The barbican defends the gate that gives access to the Runak Bridge and to Terias, providing a formidable defensive position. Even people coming via the river Don have to pass through the barbarian gate, after walking up a wide stone ramp-like platform that is used to lift goods and animals. Several guards are always stationed here, they oversee the flow of the crowd under the command of a captain of the watch. One ballista and one catapult stand on top of the two towers.
