Description

The Church on the Blood - Christmas 2007

The Church stands on the place of the brutal murder of the last Russian Tsar Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra, and their children Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Tsarevitch Alexis. They were executed by Bolsheviks at the engineer Ipatiev’s house on the night of July 16, 1918.

In 1977, the house was torn down, following the order of Boris Yeltsin, the then leader of Ural Communists, who later became first Russia’s President.

The Church on the Blood was consecrated on the 16th of July, 2003.

The ground floor of The Church, which is in the place of the basement of the Ipatiev’s house, tells the story of the canonized Romanov family. The part of the basement where the family was executed unites the upper and the lower churches, which makes The Church.
