The sole survivor of the Kremlin on the territory of the Samara region is situated at the confluence of Syzrani, the Volga and Krysi in the town of Syzran. Near the Kremlin is one of the oldest churches in the province - the Church of the Nativity. Both historic buildings form an architectural ensemble of the Kremlin hill.

One of the first decrees of Tsar Peter was to strengthen the strategic points on the Volga. "Weak point" of the southern tip of the Samarskaya Luka was Syzran, often exposed to the attacks of nomadic peoples. In 1683, under the leadership of Governor G. A. Kozlowski began construction of the fortress. Originally Syzran Kremlin had four wooden towers and one stone, preserved to our days. Stone tower first took on the functions of the portal, was later made, and inside was a Church in honor of the Savior. In our days the 27-metre tower is a cultural heritage site of Federal importance. The tower houses the Museum of the history of Syzran Kremlin, and under a marquee set is the belfry, where every day at 11 am bell concerts are performed.

The Nativity Church was built in 1717 on the site of a wooden Cathedral, built in 1683 (at the base Syzran). After a major fire in 1728, the Church was rebuilt in the style of Moscow's medieval architecture. In this form Church of Christ has been preserved to our days.

On the territory of the Kremlin hill is a small flower alley. Next to the Kremlin was built a memorial in honor of fallen soldiers.
