USAСитка1799Monuments
The site of the first Russian-American Company settlement on Baranof Island, founded in 1799 on Starrigavan Bay about 7 miles north of present-day Sitka. The fortified post was burned in 1802, and after 1804 the Russians settled at Castle Hill without rebuilding the redoubt. The site is a U.S. National Historic Landmark (1962) within Old Sitka State Historical Park.
Место первого поселения Российско-американской компании на острове Баранова, основанного в 1799 году в заливе Старригаван примерно в 11 км к северу от нынешней Ситки. В 1802 году укреплённое поселение было сожжено, и после 1804 года русские обосновались на Замковом холме, не восстанавливая прежний редут. Территория имеет статус Национального исторического памятника США (1962) и входит в исторический парк штата Аляска «Старая Ситка».
