The Archangel Allied Cemetery contains the graves of British, American, French, and other Allied troops who died during the 1918–1919 intervention in the Russian Civil War. Set in a quiet wooded area, the cemetery features white headstones and a Cross of Sacrifice. Visitors can pay respects and read the inscriptions, which tell a poignant story of a little-known military campaign in Russia's far north.
