Capella Ortodoxa Russa “Notre-Dame-des-Affligés” - Menton

Description

La capella ortodoxa russa “Notre-Dame-des-Affligés” , situada al cementiri del Vell Castell de Menton, és més que un lloc d'enterrament: és un símbol de la comunitat russa del segle XIX d'aquesta ciutat.

La capella es va construir al voltant de 1880 per a la colònia russa, com a lloc d'enterrament dels aristòcrates russos i les seves famílies. És testimoni de l'època en què molts russos visitaven la Costa Blava per relaxar-se a l'hivern i recuperar la salut gràcies als sanatoris.

En el passat, la capella va ser utilitzada com a mausoleu del príncep Troubetskoi , una prominent família noble russa, i com a lloc d'enterrament d'altres notables.

La nostra-Senyora-des-Affligés significa littéralement "La nostra Senyora dels Dolors". El nom fa referència a Maria com la consoladora dels qui pateixen pena o dolor, un tema molt apreciat en la tradició ortodoxa russa.
