About Askold's Grave
Askold's Grave is a historical park on the steep right bank of the Dnipro River in Kyiv between Mariinskyi Park and the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra complex. The park was created by the Soviets in the mid-1930s in place of an old graveyard around the Church of St. Nicholas, which, as the story goes, marks the place where Prince Askold of Kyiv was buried in the 9th century. Starting from the 20th century, Askold's Grave has once again been used as a burial site on several occasions, and currently functions as an unofficial memorial to soldiers fallen in the Russo-Ukrainian War.
