TICKETS ON GENERAL SALE 29 AUGUSTJulie of Saxe-Coburg, the Empress Russia Never Had
This is the story of Princess Juliane of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, Queen Victoria’s aunt. Born in 1781 in a small, impoverished duchy of Germany, Julie married into the Russian Imperial Family. This world proved no fairytale. Helen Rappaport recreates the life of this forgotten figure; she sheds new light on the Romanovs, revealing the sacrifices Julie made to further her family’s interests and she investigates the nature of Julie’s relationship with Tsar Alexander I and a world thrown into tumult by the murder of Emperor Paul and the rise of Napoleon.
In conversation with Celia Brayfield.
