Спасская башня
In Moscow, the name "Red Square" originally described the small area between St. Basil's Cathedral, the Spasskaya Tower of the Kremlin, and the Lobnoye Mesto herald's platform. Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich officially extended the name to encompass the entire square, which had previously been called "Pozhar", or "burnt-out place", reflecting that previous buildings occupying the site had burned down.
