The Moscow History Museum welcomes all to an exhibition dedicated to the outstanding political figure, Emperor Alexander III, nicknamed the Peacemaker.

      During his reign, Russia experienced an economic and cultural boom, and had a respite before the hard upheavals of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Presented are historical documents, memorabilia, household items associated with this event.
