KAZANSKOE CEMETERY. Cemetery in the town of Pushkin (1 Gusarskaya Street). The area consists of 35 hectares. It has existed from 1785. It is named after the Kazan Church and Burial Vault (1785-1790), built over the crypt of A.D. Lanskoy (1758-1784), who held the favour of Empress Catherine II. The mausoleum, bell tower and gates at the fence have all survived.
