Смоленское православное кладбище // Исторические кладбища Петербурга: Справ.-путеводитель. СПб., 1993. С. 234-285. The Lutheran Smolenskoe Cemetery (9 Smolenka River Embankment), on the south part of Dekabristov Island, on the right bank of the Smolenka River, covers an area of 7.3 hectares. Founded in 1747 for interring foreigners, mainly consisting of Lutherans from the St. Catherine Church parish on Bolshoy Avenue of Vasilievsky Island, it is the oldest of St. Petersburg's non-Orthodox cemeteries. Buried here are Eastern Studies scholar academician V.V. Bartold, surgeons I.F. Bush and R.R. Wreden, chemist G.I. Hess, soil scientist V.V. Dokuchaev, Admiral A.S. Greig, physicists G.F. Parrot, P.L. Schilling and B.S. Jakoby, land-surveyor F.I. Schubert, director of the Tsarskoselsky Lyceum E.A. Engelgardt, aquarellist V.I. Hau, architects D.I. Grimm and P.Y. Suzor, writer F.M. Klinger, diplomats K.V. Nesselrode and V.N. Lamsdorf, publisher M.O. Wolf, and circus performer G. Cinizelli. In the 20th century, the remains of several historic figures were transferred to the museum-necropolis (L. Euler, A.A. Bethencourt, J.F. Thomas de Thomon). During the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1944, Leningrad Front soldiers and children who perished during the bombardment of 9 May 1942 were interred here (a monument by sculptor V.I. Gordon was opened in 1966). Reference: Пирожков Г. В., Громов Н. В. Смоленское лютеранское кладбище // Исторические кладбища Петербурга: Справ.-путеводитель. СПб., 1993. С. 286-308. The Armenian Smolenskoe Cemetery (29 Smolenka River Embankment), west of the Lutheran Smolenskoe Cemetery, covers an area of 0.5 hectares. Opened in 1791, the cemetery was the Armenian-Gregorian community's burial place. The cemetery's the Holy Resurrection Church (architect Y.M. Felten(?)), was consecrated in 1797. The construction project was financed by factory owner and philanthropist I.L. Lazarev as a burial vault for his 23 year old son Artemy (headstone by sculptor I.P. Martos, transferred in the 1930s to the Blagoveschenskaya Burial Vault). In 1988, burials were resumed, the church was returned to the Armenian community, and the Armenian community's cultural centre was established here. Among those buried here are participant of the Patriotic War of 1812 Z. Firalov, aide-de-camp of A.V. Suvorov, Major General I.V. Khastatov; traveller G.0I. Khaldarov; Eastern Studies scholars O. Amidi and K.P. Patkanov. About 200 tombstones have been preserved. Reference: Аматуни В. Н. Смоленское армянское кладбище // Исторические кладбища Петербурга: Справ.-путеводитель. СПб., 1993.
