City Russian Cemetery

The City Russian Cemetery in Kronstadt is located at 31 Kronshtadtskoye Highway and is a burial site with restrictions on new plots, where only family reburials and state funerals are permitted. On its territory are the mass graves of the submariners of the submarine "Rabochiy," the crews of the destroyer "Steregushchiy," the gunboat "Krasnoye Znamya," the icebreaker "Tazuya," and the sailors of the patrol ship "Gangutets." According to 1913 data, the oldest monument in the cemetery is the burial of Archpriest Ubersky, dating back to 1796. Historically, separate sections for Estonian, Finnish, Catholic, Jewish, and Muslim burials were located near the Russian Cemetery, and the chapel-tomb of the old woman Paraskeva and the grave of radio engineer P. N. Rybkin have the status of cultural heritage sites.
