We were hoping to put on a special weekend on the Isle of Wight in July 2021, celebrating the 40^th anniversary of the Glorification of the Royal Martyrs.  But this may not happen because of Covid restrictions. It will be postponed if necessary.

The Romanov events  this year will include presentation of our exhibitions, talks, film showing, concerts and walks. We are planning to co-operate with local publisher “Medina”, which will launch a new book dedicated to the Romanov connections with the Isle of Wight.

We are going to establish two guided walks:

one following the footsteps of the Imperial Family during their visit to Cowes and East Cowes in August 1909: from the Royal Yacht Squadron through the High Street in Cowes and shops visited by the daughters of Tsar Nicholas towards Osborne, St Mildred’s and Barton Manor;

and another one “Royal Martyrs and Revolutions” from Ventnor and Bonchurch, a favourite holiday place among Russian liberals and radicals, towards the places associated with English and Russian Royal Martyrs  – Carisbrooke Castle (Charles I), Osborne House and the Monument to the Royal Martyrs of Russia.

Other plans include:

Improvement of our website and Facebook and developing of a new Site on Instagram;

Archival research and new publications;

Pilgrimage to the Holy land

Lectures on “Orthodox Faith of St Elizabeth and Royal Martyrs” (on line).
