  • The palace church in honor of was constructed at Alexander II. It has conceived as a treasury and storehouse of religious relics of the Russian imperial house. It has been incorporated in 1862 and reconstructed under the project of the professor of architecture I.A.Monigetti from Pototsky's Catholic chapel - former owners of the manor.

    It adjoins the palace from the western side. Krasnov has been forced to keep and include it in a composition of the palace ensemble. And though it is not quite coordinated with the general architecture of the building, it is necessary to give due to the author of the project who managed enough dexterously "to hide" it.

    Things To Do: Livadia Vax Museum

  • A Wax Museum has each tourist center respecting itself. As Livadia is impregnated by history, it was natural to see such a museum in several halls of the Livadia Palace.

    In the first hall the exposition devoted to the Yalta conference of 1945 is exposed. Three heads of the states of the coalition - Franklin Roosevelt, Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin are presented sitting in armchairs as on the well-known photo. Quality of wax figures is very high. The guide has paid our attention to eyes of figures. They really look as alive. Eyes were made in the best Russian eye clinic.

    In the second hall the family of the last Russian Emperor Nikolay II is presented. The Emperor sits on a distance. His spouse Alexandra Fiodorovna, four daughters - Olga, Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia, and also the successor of the throne Alexei are presented together as in the known photo of the august family. At the distance there is the figure of ominous Gregory Rasputin. The excursion is accompanied by a soundtrack of parade of imperial armies on which only one phrase of emperor Nikolay was kept. An orchestra plays. You may hear a song by Janna Bichevskaya which she sing accompanied a guitar.

    The composition makes very strong impression.

    Entrance fee 15 grivnas ($3). You can get the Museum just from the Souvenir shop, which you can't miss departing the Livadia Palace Museum.
