Cherepovets Attractions & Activities - The Best Holiday Destinations for 2020
Cherepovets' is the largest city in Vologda Oblast, founded in the 14th century as a monastery. Although not the adminstrative capital of Vologda Oblast', it certainly serves as the economic one soley due to the large company it hosts, OAO Severstal' (Northern Steel), which dominates the entire city.

Although there are not many sites to see in the city itself, it serves as a good base to see the many attractions of Vologda Oblast'.
