Big Mithridat staircase is one of the most beloved Kerch attractions of Kerchians and visitors. 432 steps lead to the summit of Mount Mithridates, located in the heart of the city on the shore of the Kerch Strait. Big Mitridat ladder got its name from Mount Mithridates, on which it is located. Mount Mithridates was named in memory of the glorious historical past, in honor of ancient King Mithridates (whose full name - Pontus Mithridates VI Eupator). Mithridates was the King of Bosporus. In ancient Panticapaeum on Mount Mithridates was located a magnificent palace of Mithridates. Big Mitridatskaya staircase was built in the 30s of the 19th century, a project developed by the Italian architect Alexander Digby. There is a spectacular panoramic view from the mountain: the sea, the Strait with the ships gliding to the port, the area at the foot of the mountain.
