The article presents the characteristics of the urban and posad fortifications of Tobolsk of the XVII century on the basis of a comparative study of historical, cartographic and archaeological sources. According to the available data, it has been established that the stages and nature of the development of the first province city of Siberia in the early stages of its history depended on the localization and features of the defensive lines construction. The analysis of Siberian chronicles, late historical texts, urban plans and archaeological research materials allowed to determine the development direction of Tobolsk and change of its borders over time, as well as to clarify the localization of fortifications, to reveal their true size and the construction of wooden structures. A detailed description is given of all revealed excavations, laid in the historical part of the city, fortifications, represented by ditches of different sizes from palings, with additional structures.
