The cenotaph of Marina Tsvetaeva
The cenotaph of Marina Tsvetaeva, Memorial stone in Tarusa, Russia.
A granite cenotaph stands on the steep bank of the Oka River, bearing the inscription 'Here Marina Tsvetaeva would have liked to rest'.
The first memorial stone was installed in 1962 by student Semyon Ostrovsky but removed at the request of Tsvetaeva's daughter Ariadna Efron.
The location holds special meaning as it was part of Marina Tsvetaeva's childhood route from her summer house to the center of Tarusa.
Visitors can reach the cenotaph by following the path from the Church of the Resurrection down to the Oka River bank, away from the city center.
The current stone, placed in October 1988, marks the exact spot where a chapel once stood near a former Khlyst religious community cemetery.
