This article appears in Volume V26, Page 1043 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: THE-TOO
TOBOLSK , a town of Asiatic
Russia
 ,
capital
  of the government of the same name, on the right bank of the Irtysh, near its confluence with the Tobol. Pop. (1900), 21,401. It is 305 M. E.N.E. from Ekaterinburg, and is no longer the
capital
  of West
Siberia
  nor even an administrative centre for exiles. The kreml, or citadel, built in the reign of Peter the
Great
 , by Swedish prisoners, in imitation of the kreml of Moscow, contains the
cathedral
 , erected towards the end of the 17th century. Some 12 M.
south
 -
east
  are the ruins of the " fort of Kuchum," the site of the capital of
Siberia
 , Isker, before the
Russian
  conquest. Tobolsk was founded in 1587 by Cossacks, and forms the see of the
bishop
  of Tobolsk and Siberia.
