Chapel of the Revered Martyr Grand Princess Yelizaveta Fyodorovna

Yekaterinburg

Located next to the Church upon the Blood (which was built to commemorate the site where the Romanov family were executed), the wooden Chapel of the Revered Martyr Grand Princess Yelizaveta Fyodorovna honours the family’s great-aunt and friend. After her relatives’ murders, this pious nun met an even worse end when she was thrown down a mine shaft, gassed and buried.
