For 500 years, the Kremlin has been the command center of Russian power—golden domes on the outside, a fortress of secrecy within. From tsars to Soviets to modern rulers, this citadel has shaped history from behind red brick walls.

In this episode, we trace how a medieval fortress became an engine of state power—where coronations and councils shared space with dungeons and midnight knocks. Ivan IV’s terror, the Romanovs’ downfall, Stalin’s purges, Cold War bunkers, and the modern machinery of the state: the Kremlin outlasts every regime, even as it devours the people who rule from it.

Why does one building keep producing the same results across monarchies, revolutions, and republics? And what do its walls still hide today?
