Among them are the revolutionaries Joseph Dubrovinsky and Suren Spandaryan, artist Dmitry Karatanov, architect Vladimir Sokolovsky, opera singer Peter Slovtsov, mother of the artist Vasily Surikov and Patrony Gennady Yudin.
In addition, several mass graves of war and revolutions are located in the cemetery. The Trinity Church and 31 burial are monuments of cultural heritage and are under the protection of the state.
“Visiting the graves of outstanding figures who created the history of Krasnoyarsk is now quite difficult. There is no navigation, convenient ways, the opportunity to get acquainted with historical certificates, and so on. Troitsky necropolis is planned to be turned into a tourist and cultural attraction. Such experience has long been used in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other world capitals. The cemeteries there are museums where excursions are led, they are arranged by educational and memorial events, ”the city administration explained.
