The Royal Romanov dynasty

In 1918, tragic events occurred in the Ipatiev house in Yekaterinburg - all members of the Romanov Royal family were shot. The dynasty that ruled the Russian Empire for more than 300 years has been interrupted. In Soviet times, the Ipatiev House was destroyed, but later a Church on Blood was built over this place. There is a Museum nearby. In the Northern suburb is the Ganina Yama monastery. There, the bodies of the Royal family were thrown here into the mines.
