Russisk-ortodokse kapel "Notre-Dame-des-Affligés" - Menton

Description

Det russisk-ortodokse kapel Notre-Dame-des-Affligéskirkegården i Mentons gamle slot er mere end et gravsted: det er et symbol på det russiske samfund i denne by i det 19. århundrede.

Kapellet blev bygget omkring 1880 for den russiske koloni som gravsted for russiske aristokrater og deres familier. Det vidner om den tid, hvor mange russere besøgte Côte d'Azur for at slappe af om vinteren og genoprette deres helbred takket være sanatorierne.

Tidligere blev kapellet brugt som mausoleum for Prins Troubetskoi , en vigtig russisk adelsfamilie, og som gravsted for andre personligheder.

Vor Frue af Sorgerne betyder bogstaveligt talt "Vor Frue af Sorgerne". Navnet refererer til Maria som trøsteren for dem, der lider sorg eller smerte - et tema, der lægges stor vægt på i den russisk-ortodokse tradition.
