Church on Blood (Church-Memorial on the Blood in the name of All Saints who shone in the Russian land), consecrated in 2003, it was erected in memory of those killed in Yekaterinburg 100 years ago: the last emperor of Russia, who had already abdicated by that time from the throne, his family, including a young son, close associates, servants and a family doctor. A monument was erected to the dead in front of the Temple. Information that the Temple was erected on the site where the murder was committed is not entirely reliable; the Temple is shifted from it down the slope to the shore of the City Pond (to the northwest) by several tens of meters.→
