Novorossiysk is a city with a population of 242 thousand inhabitants, located on the shore of the bay Tsemess. A major trading port. The cove was owned by Greeks, the Genoese and the Turks, who built a fortress Sudzhuk-Calais there. During the Russian-Turkish war it was destroyed and a Russian fort was established.
