Urban services in the Moscow State of the XVII century(materials on the town of Borovsk)

The paper considers urban services provided in the small town of Borovsk on the Protva River near Moscow in the XVII century. It provides development characteristics of services rendered by the Borovsk coachmen, gate warders and gunners. The urban services system was established in the XVI century; it passed the hardships of the Time of Troubles and existed throughout the entire XVII century. As Borovsk was losing its former significance as a fortress on the outskirts of Moscow, the petty service people of the town and the Borovsk district also lost their former military significance. In conditions when the need for their service was gradually dying out, the Borovsk service people showed corporate unity and together defended their rights both in the face of state power and in disputes with the other townspeople.
