      Prince Yuri I Dolgoruki (Russian: Юрий Долгорукий, "Yuri the Long-arm"), also known as George I of Russia, (c. 1099–May 15, 1157) was a key figure in the transition of political power from Kiev to Vladimir-Suzdal following the death of his elder brother Mstislav the Great. He reigned as Veliki Kniaz (Grand Prince) of Kiev from September 1149 to April 1151 and then again from March 1155 to May 1157.

      Activities in Rostov and Suzdal
      Yuri was the sixth son of Vladimir Monomakh. Although his birthdate is uncertain, some chronicles report that Yuri's elder brother, Viacheslav, said to him: "I am much older than you; I was already bearded when you were born." Since Viacheslav was born in 1083, this pushes Yuri's birth to c. 1099/1100.

      In 1108, Yuri was sent by his father to govern in his name the vast Rostov-Suzdal province in the north-east of Kievan Rus'. In 1121, he quarrelled with the boyars of Rostov and moved the capital of his lands from that city to Suzdal. As the area was sparsely populated, Yuriy founded many fortresses there. He established the towns of Ksniatin in 1134, Pereslavl-Zalesski and Yuriev-Polski in 1152, and Dmitrov in 1154. The establishment of Tver, Kostroma, and Vologda is also popularly assigned to Yuri.

      In 1147, Yuri Dolgoruki had a meeting with Sviatoslav Olgovich in a place called Moscow. In 1156, Yuri fortified Moscow with wooden walls and a moat. Although the settlement probably existed earlier, Dolgoruki is often called "The Founder of Moscow".

      Struggle for Kiev
      For all the interest he took in fortifying his Northern lands, Yuri still coveted the throne of Kiev. It is his active participation in the Southern affairs that earned him the sobriquet of "Dolgoruki", i.e., "the long-armed". His elder brother Mstislav of Kiev died in 1132, and "the Rus lands fell apart", as one chronicle put it. Yuri instantaneously declared war on the princes of Chernigov, enthroned his son in Novgorod, and captured Pereyaslav of the South. The Novgorodians, however, betrayed him, and Yuri avenged by seizing their key fortress, Torzhok.

      In 1147, Dolgoruki resumed his struggle for Kiev and two years later he captured it, but in 1151 he was driven from the capital of Rus by his nephew Iziaslav. In 1155, Yuri regained Kiev once again. His sudden death, however, sparkled anti-Suzdalian uprising in Kiev. Yuri Dolgoruki was interred at the Saviour Church in Berestovo, Kiev, but his tomb is empty.

      Marriages and children
      The Primary Chronicle records the first marriage of Yuri on 12 January 1108. His first wife was a daughter of Aepa Ocenevich, Khan of the Cumans. Her paternal granfather was Osen. Her people belonged to the Kipchaks, a confederation of pastoralists and warriors of Turkic origin.

      His second wife Helena survived him and moved to Constantinople. Her paternity is not known for certain but Nikolay Karamzin was the first to theorise that Helena was returning to her native city. She has since be theorised to be a member of the Komnenos dynasty which ruled the Byzantine Empire throughout the life of Yuri. She has been tendatively identified with Helena Komnene, a daughter of Isaac Komnenos. The identification would make her a granddaughter of Alexios I Komnenos and Irene Doukaina.

      Yuri had at least fifteen children. The identities of the mothers are not known for certain

      The following are considered elder children and usually attributed to the first wife.
      Rostislav Yuryevich, Prince of Pereyaslavl (d. 6 April 1151).

      Yaropolk Yurievich.

      Memorials
      Muscovites have cherished Yuri's memory as the legendary founder of city. His patron saint, Saint George appears on the coat of arms of Moscow slaying a dragon. In 1954, a monument to him was erected on Moscow's Tverskaya Street, the city's principal avenue, in front of the Moscow municipality.

      Dolgoruki's image was stamped on a medal "In commemoration of Moscow's 800th anniversary", introduced in 1947.

      The nuclear submarine Yuri Dolgoruki is named after him.

      Juri Dolgoruki (russ. Юрий Долгорукий, übersetzt Juri (=Georg) Langhand; * 1090; † 15. Mai 1157 in Kiew), aus dem Geschlecht der Rurikiden, Sohn Wladimir Monomachs, war Fürst von Rostow.

      Leben [Bearbeiten]

      Unter seine Herrschaft fällt eine Expansionsphase des Fürstentums, in dem es dem bis dahin dominanten Kiew endgültig den Rang als bedeutendstes russisches Fürstentum ablief. Zahlreiche, durch die westliche Romanik angeregte Kirchenbauten und Befestigungen entstanden auf seine Initiative. Außerdem verlegte Juri im Jahr 1125 den Fürstensitz von Rostow nach Susdal.

      1149 bis 1151 und 1155 bis 1157 war er in einer Phase von Auseinandersetzungen innerhalb der Rurikiden-Dynastie auch Großfürst von Kiew. Die Stadt befand sich zu diesem Zeitpunkt allerdings bereits im Niedergang und hatte einen Teil ihrer Bedeutung vor allem an Nowgorod verloren. Juris Sohn Andrei Bogoljubski hatte offensichtlich kein Interesse an Kiew. Er behielt zwar den Großfürstentitel, konzentrierte seine Herrschaft ansonsten aber auf Susdal.
      Rezeption [Bearbeiten]
      Denkmal für Juri Dolgoruki in Kostroma, dessen Gründung ebenfalls ihm zugeschrieben wird

      Juri Dolgoruki gilt als Gründer Moskaus. Die erste Erwähnung der Stadt aus dem Jahr 1147 ist mit ihm verbunden. Im Jahr 1156 war die Festung Moskow am Rande seines Herrschaftsgebietes errichtet, daher wird dieses Jahr oft als Entstehungsdatum des Moskauer Kremls genannt.
      Ehrungen [Bearbeiten]

      Nach Dolgoruki wurde das erste Atom-U-Boot der russischen Borei-Klasse benannt, welches im Jahr 2007 vom Stapel lief.[1]

      Yuri Dolgoruki
      From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

      Prince Yuri I Dolgoruki (Russian: Юрий Долгорукий, "Yuri the Long-arm"), also known as George I of Rus', (c. 1099–15 May 1157) was the founder of Moscow and a key figure in the transition of political power from Kiev to Vladimir-Suzdal following the death of his elder brother Mstislav the Great. He reigned as Velikiy Kniaz (Grand Prince) of Kiev from September 1149 to April 1151 and then again from March 1155 to May 1157.

      Activities in Rostov and Suzdal

      Yuri was the sixth son of Vladimir Monomakh. Although his birthdate is uncertain, some chronicles report that Yuri's elder brother, Viacheslav, said to him: "I am much older than you; I was already bearded when you were born." Since Viacheslav was born in 1083, this pushes Yuri's birth to c. 1099/1100.
      In 1108, Yuri was sent by his father to govern in his name the vast Rostov-Suzdal province in the north-east of Kievan Rus'. In 1121, he quarrelled with the boyars of Rostov and moved the capital of his lands from that city to Suzdal. As the area was sparsely populated, Yuriy founded many fortresses there. He established the towns of Ksniatin in 1134, Pereslavl-Zalesski and Yuriev-Polski in 1152, and Dmitrov in 1154. The establishment of Tver, Kostroma, and Vologda is also popularly assigned to Yuri.
      In 1147, Yuri Dolgoruki had a meeting with Sviatoslav Olgovich in a place called Moscow. In 1156, Yuri fortified Moscow with wooden walls and a moat. Although the settlement probably existed earlier, Dolgoruki is often called "The Founder of Moscow".
      [edit]Struggle for Kiev

      For all the interest he took in fortifying his Northern lands, Yuri still coveted the throne of Kiev. It is his active participation in the Southern affairs that earned him the sobriquet of "Dolgoruki", i.e., "the long-armed". His elder brother Mstislav of Kiev died in 1132, and "the Rus lands fell apart", as one chronicle put it. Yuri instantaneously declared war on the princes of Chernigov, enthroned his son in Novgorod, and captured Pereyaslav of the South. The Novgorodians, however, betrayed him, and Yuri avenged by seizing their key fortress, Torzhok.
      In 1147, Dolgoruki resumed his struggle for Kiev and two years later he captured it, but in 1151 he was driven from the capital of Rus by his nephew Iziaslav. In 1155, Yuri regained Kiev once again. His sudden death, however, sparkled anti-Suzdalian uprising in Kiev. Yuri Dolgoruki was interred at the Saviour Church in Berestovo, Kiev, but his tomb is empty.
      [edit]Marriages and children

      The Primary Chronicle records the first marriage of Yuri on 12 January 1108. His first wife was a daughter of Aepa Ocenevich, Khan of the Cumans. Her paternal grandfather was Osen. Her people belonged to the Kipchaks, a confederation of pastoralists and warriors of Turkic origin.
      His second wife Helena survived him and moved to Constantinople. Her paternity is not known for certain but Nikolay Karamzin was the first to theorise that Helena was returning to her native city. She has since be theorised to be a member of the Komnenos dynasty which ruled the Byzantine Empire throughout the life of Yuri. She has been tendatively identified with Helena Komnene, a daughter of Isaac Komnenos. The identification would make her a granddaughter of Alexios I Komnenos and Irene Doukaina.
      Yuri had at least fifteen children. The identities of the mothers are not known for certain
      The following are considered elder children and usually attributed to the first wife.
      Rostislav Yuryevich, Prince of Pereyaslavl (d. 6 April 1151).
      Ivan Yuryevich, Prince of Kursk (d. 24 February 1147).
      Olga Yuryevna (d. 1189). Married Yaroslav Osmomysl.

      [edit] In memoriam
      Muscovites have cherished Yuri's memory ever since and represented his patron saint, Saint George slaying a dragon, on the city's coat of arms. In 1954, a monument to him was erected on Moscow's principal avenue. Dolgoruki's image was stamped on a medal "In commemoration of Moscow's 800th anniversary", introduced in 1947. The nuclear submarine Yuri Dolgoruki is named after him.
