The Holy Russian Martyrs Church in Alapaevsk After the Russian Revolution, all the remaining members of the Royal Family were sent to Alapayevsk and were accommodated in a so-called Napolnaya School. When in summer 1918 the attack of Admiral Kolchak began, they were on horse cars to the Mezhnaya station and were thrown into a mineshaft. At the place of their death, the Monastery in the name of all the New Russian Martyrs was built.
