The Russian Chapel cultural monument was erected in 1916 in memory of Russian soldiers who were buried by an avalanche during the construction of a road across the Vršič mountain pass. The annual memorial ceremony at the Russian Chapel is attended by the highest representatives of the Russian Federation and Slovenia, as well as the general public, who want to symbolically show their friendship between the two nations.
