Sacred relics of the Black Sea Fleet and related stories

Journal Title: Eminak - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 3

Abstract

The article is a story of the first rewarding of nine naval Black Sea Fleet crews from Mykolayiv with St. George’s flags and celebration of February 7, 1857 on this occasion. We present the biography of one of the participants of the festival and author of memoirs about it I. Bartenev (1825-1887). Up to now, most publications have mistakenly pointed to the well-known existence of one preserved St. George flag in the museum of Sevastopol. The author is aware of two genuine St. George flags: the first one is in the collection of the Museum of Heroic Defense and Liberation of Sevastopol, the second is in the Mykolayiv Regional Museum of Local History. These are unique exhibits.
