This paper describes fracture and low-amplitude fault systems in Upper Cretaceous deposits in the vicinity of the Chufut-Kale “cave town.” Analysis of the orientations and kinematics of the faults and fracture parageneses has made it possible to reconstruct stress-fields of the Alpine tectonic stage and their rough order. An assumption on the appearance of sublatitudinal compression in Mountainous Crimea has been made.
