Nikolskoe Cemetery (Russian: Никольское кладбище) is a historic cemetery in the centre of Saint Petersburg. It is part of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra, and is one of four cemeteries in the complex. The third cemetery to be established in the monastery complex, the Nikolskoe Cemetery opened in 1863, and rapidly became a popular and exclusive burial site for the elite of Saint Petersburg society. It was carefully arranged and landscaped, with its cemetery church opening in 1871. Taking its name from this church, the Church of St. Nicholas, the cemetery functioned also a burial ground for the clergy and monks of the monastery. The wealthy and important of the city commissioned large and elaborate memorials during the later years of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth.

  • Der Nikolaus-Friedhof (russisch Никольское кладбище / Nikolskoje kladbischtsche; wiss. Transliteration; Nikol'skoe kladbišče) befindet sich hinter dem Ostchor der Kathedrale des Alexander-Newski-Klosters in Sankt Petersburg (Russland). Seine Geschichte beginnt 1861. Der Friedhof war ursprünglich für Kleriker und Mönche der Lawra bestimmt, später auch für Laien. (de)
  • Le cimetière Saint-Nicolas (en russe : Nikolskoïe kladbichtche) est l'un des trois cimetières de la laure Saint-Alexandre-Nevski de Saint-Pétersbourg, à côté du cimetière Saint-Lazare, et du cimetière Tikhvine. Il a été ouvert en 1861 et a reçu son nom officiel en 1877 de l'église Saint-Nicolas construite entre 1868 et 1871 par Grigori Karpov. Il était au départ destiné aux ecclésiastiques et aux moines de la laure, c'est ainsi que nombre de métropolites et de prêtres y sont enterrés, mais progressivement a été ouvert pour les Pétersbourgeois. Il est toujours en fonction (on a récemment construit un columbarium) et l'on commence à le restaurer, bien qu'un certain nombre d'endroits du cimetière soient en état d'abandon, le cimetière ayant souffert du vandalisme, surtout dans les années 1950-1960. Une allée des chevaliers de l'ordre de Saint-Alexandre-Nevski a été ouverte récemment, ainsi qu'une section pour les personnalités de la ville. Anatoli Sobtchak, ancien maire de Saint-Pétersbourg et mentor de Vladimir Poutine, y est inhumé. Un petit étang se trouve au milieu du cimetière. (fr)

The wealthy and important of the city commissioned large and elaborate memorials during the later years of the nineteenth century and into the twentieth. The cemetery fell into disrepair during the Soviet period. Unlike other cemeteries in the Lavra, it was not considered to have any particular historical or artistic value. The church was closed and repurposed, burials ceased, and some memorials of more significant figures were moved to other cemeteries, while others were lost or deliberately destroyed. Restoration work began in the 1970s, returning the site to its park-like form. A columbarium was built, the cemetery church reopened, and work to repair and refurbish the monuments began. Burials recommenced in the late 1970s, and now the cemetery includes prominent figures of Soviet and post-Soviet society, as well as those of the era of Imperial Russia. (en)
