Categories / Capital/Personalia

ALEXEY PETROVICH (1690-1718, St. Petersburg), Tsarevich, heir to the throne, eldest son of Tsar Peter I and his first wife E.F. Lopukhina, father of Emperor Peter II. Received home education. From the age of 17, he participated in state and military affairs. In 1716, knowing his father intended to give the throne to children from his marriage with Catherine I, he fled to Austria. He was brought back in 1718, accused of treason against the State, and secretly murdered in the Peter and Paul Fortress. In St. Petersburg he initially lived in a small house at Posadskaya Street; from 1714, he lived on the Neva Embankment (present-day Kutuzova Embankment); he also owned a dacha in the region of present-day Sergeevka and Kupsino House (Kupchino). He was buried under the stairs of the SS. Peter&Paul Cathedral bell tower.
