History
Local authorities advertise Cherdyn to tourists as the capital of the ancient Principality of Great Perm. This information is based on an 1835 study by the Swedish historian A. M. Strinnholm, as well as the 1815 study by the Russian historian Nikolay Karamzin. Strinnholm mentioned that the last trip of Scandinavian Vikings to Bjarmia (a.k.a. Great Perm) happened in 1222. Four well-equipped ships of Haakon IV of Norway burned Bjarmian towns to the ground.
After that, the fur trade between the Great Perm and Western Europe was possible only via the Novgorod Republic, which controlled the Russian North. After the Russian principalities began to be united by the grand princes of Moscow, the princes of Perm, who already had Russian names, became their vassals, in addition to answering to Novgorod. Great Perm–Cherdyn supplied a great deal of silver paid as tribute of Moscow, which in turn was paid to the Golden Horde. Tensions between Moscow and Novgorod led to a war in 1471, after which Novgorod was annexed by Moscow. The following year, Cherdyn, Pokcha, and all other towns of Great Perm were annexed into the Russian state. The main fort of the Muscovites was built in Pokcha, located 7 kilometers (4.3 mi) to the north of Cherdyn. It was burned by indigenous tribes in the beginning of the 16th century.
