The territory of the Pskov region was originally inhabited by Balt and Finno-Ugric tribes. The first Slavs - Pskov Krivichi - appeared here in the 6th century. It was one of the first areas in Russia populated by the Slavs. The first mention of Pskov dates back to 903 (“The Tale of Bygone Years”, Laurentian Chronicle), Izborsk - 862 (“The Tale of Bygone Years”).
In the 10th - the beginning of the 12th centuries, the Pskov region was part of the Old Russian state. Until the 12th century, Pskov recognized the primacy of the prince of Kiev. The rise of Novgorod, the second center of the country that represented the policy of Kiev in the North West, led to the inclusion of Pskov in the Novgorod land.
This territory was not conquered by the Mongols, which helped to preserve a large number of monuments of the 13th-15th centuries. In 1348, Pskov became the capital of an independent Pskov Veche Republic. In 1510, Pskov Republic was abolished and its territory was annexed to the Grand Duchy of Moscow. The symbol of the independence of Pskov - veche bell - was taken to Moscow.
More historical facts…
Pskov became the western outpost on the way to Moscow. At the beginning of the 17th century, during the Time of Troubles (and after), part of the territory of the Russian state including the Pskov region, was occupied by Sweden and Poland.
Since the beginning of the Great Northern War in 1700, Pskov became once again one of the centers of military events. At the end of the war (Treaty of Nystad, 1721), Russia received the territory of the former Livonia and Pskov lost its importance as a defensive and trade center. These functions were transferred to the new capital Russia - St. Petersburg - and the Baltic ports (Revel, Riga).
In 1772, by the decree of Catherine II, Pskov guberniya (province) was created. In the 18th-19th centuries, Pskov province developed as an agrarian region, with a small number of urban population. According to the National Population Census of 1897, there were 1,122,317 inhabitants in the province, 93% of whom lived in villages.
On March 2, 1917, in Pskov, the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II was forced to sign the abdication. During the Second World War, most of the Pskov region was occupied by the Germans (1941-1944). On August 23, 1944, Pskov Oblast was established.
After the collapse of the USSR, in the 1990s, Pskov Oblast again became a border region, which gave it a transit and customs-border status.

Pskov Oblast is in Northwestern Russia , which borders Latvia to the west, Estonia to the northwest, Leningrad Oblast to the north, Novgorod Oblast to the northeast, Tver Oblast to the east, Smolensk Oblast to the southeast, and Belarus to the south.
Despite the proximity of the border with Latvia , Estonia and Belarus , in socio-economic terms, the Pskov Oblast is the most underdeveloped among all the Oblasts of Russia (only among the Oblasts), and the most backward region of Central Russia. There is practically no industry here, and agriculture is poorly developed.
An ancient region of Russia which once constituted its own republic, Pskov Oblast is a great weekend trip or longer from Saint Petersburg . Tourist infrastructure is at best rudimentary, although one would expect this will change in the near future, but the region has lots to see for an adventurous traveler or a traveler with a good guide. Pskov, the capital, is without a doubt the principal attraction and likely the only stop for most travelers, but it might be a good plan to get out of the city and check out nearby Izborsk.
See Russian phrasebook .
Two daily buses depart for Pskov from Novgorod at 08:30 and 16:00.
Trains from Saint Petersburg are unfortunately very inconvenient — they leave around 03:00 and arrive in Pskov four hours later. A better option is to hop on a bus from Petersburg's Vitebsky Vokzal; there are 15 buses bound for Pskov daily and they take about 5 hours to get there.
There is a daily overnight train from Moscow which leaves around 20:00 and arrives in Pskov around 08:00.
Pskov Airport ( PKV IATA ) from Moscow and Sochi.
Pskov is a common last stop in Russia for visitors traveling overland to the Baltic states .
