Rumbolovskaya Mountain has a rich history. There are many stories about the caves and the city of Vsevolozhsk, and including, under Rumbolovskoy mountain. In 1984 here it was found one of the fragments of the underground passage. During the lengthy and complex underground works were cleared debris and discovered new underground rooms, which are made without attachments in silty loess loam. Also, there were found: underground drenazhka, fragments of the log deck, the similarity of the gallery, is entirely inundated with mud. The purpose of these dungeons and time of their creation are not installed. Excavations at these locations have been discontinued because it was dangerous, as there was the probability of collapse of the arch.

Lovers of all kinds of travels underground claimed that underground passages dug up the whole mountain Rumbolovskaya. Caves are going in different directions and perhaps there since time immemorial. According to local legends, few moves are far enough away and are connected to Koltushskoe quarry, located nearly 10 km from Vsevolozhsk. So far it is unknown how many of these underground passages, and where they lead.

It all began with an unusual construction, called the Red Castle, the ruins of which are located on the slopes of Mount Rumbolovskoy. Not determined, by whom and when was built the Red Castle. But it is known that in the early 19th v.on already been, and Vsevolozhsk got it in a very neglected state. In pre-revolutionary times, the building was converted into artisan corps and Vsevolozhskys house was built on top of the mountain above the old walls. New house burned down in 1926, but the mysterious walls of the Red Castle still stand, despite the fact that they repeatedly burned and rebuilt.

According to legend Red Castle was built by the Swedes. By Rumbolovskomu park is a road "Swedish bridges", called so in memory of gatyah that were laid here in the 16th century. Swedish commander Pontus De la Gardie. This road ran from Keksholm (now Priozersk) in place Ryabovo (today Vsevolozhsk) through Ruutunsky graveyard (now the Pine), and further expense to Nienschanz (promontory at the confluence of the Neva and Okhta) and Noteburg (Nut). Deep underground, locked existed vast cellars, where you can store huge caches. Red Castle, and housing was also a kind of reference point, where they could stop for resupply and rest of the Swedish troops in Ingermanland way and then Muscovy.

To this end, most likely, and was built in a marshy and semi-desert castle with two towers in five tiers, which if necessary can be a defensive point. To move through the swamps were paved causeway, and arranged for a secret retreat of the system of underground tunnels.
