Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois Russian Cemetery, Russian Orthodox cemetery in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois, France.

This cemetery is a burial ground in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois featuring thousands of graves marked with Orthodox crosses, sculptures, and stone monuments. The graves display Russian inscriptions and range from modest markers to elaborate memorial designs that reflect individual histories and tastes.

The Cimetière de Liers was opened on 8 February 1879 as the town's second communal cemetery, 25 km south of Paris. In 1927 part of the land was granted to the English benefactress Dorothy Paget, who had founded a retirement home for Russian émigrés with Elena Orlov and Princess Vera Meshchersky; this section became the Russian cemetery. By 1939 there were about 50 graves, by 1952 about 2,000.

The cemetery takes its name from the commune, literally "Saint Genevieve of the Woods". The Dormition Church, consecrated in 1939, follows the 15th–16th-century Pskov school, and its frescoes were painted by architect Albert Benois and his wife Margarita. The cemetery is a pilgrimage site for Russians, and the Gallipoli monument, consecrated in 1961, reproduces a stone mound built in 1921 in Gelibolu.

The cemetery is located in a southern suburb of Paris and is accessible by foot or public transportation. Visitors should dress respectfully and treat the grounds with care, as this is an active burial site.

Rudolf Nureyev's burial here required pressure from the central government, as the cemetery was already closed to new burials. His tomb is covered with a mosaic representing a traditional kilim blanket. The cemetery holds one mausoleum and memorials to General Alexander Kutepov and to Russians who died in the war effort, among them Princess Véra Obolensky of the OCM.
