Not sure if TH-cam viewers generally realise this is NOT strictly speaking her funeral. Empress Dagmar, the mother of Tzar Nicholas II, died in 1928 in her native Denmark after fleeing Russia during the revolution that took the lives of so many of her Russian family members. It was always her wish to be laid to rest next to her husband (Tzar Alexander III) in Russia. This finally happened in 2006. This video dates from that time and is a farewell service from her family members, friends and others before her coffin was transferred to Russia and her final resting place in accordance with her own wishes.
Thanks for the background Ferenc. I was confused as I knew she died three years after her sister, our beloved Princess Alexandra. Minnie and Alix were real beauties who served their adopted countries with charm and grace.
It's great that russians take back their tsaritsa Maria Fedorovna to burry her close to her husband. She was the most beautiful, wise and wondeful queen of Russian Empire!
SÅ/ HØRTE DET. Jeg er sikker på, at Dronningen i sit hjerte også reagerede under sløret. Immervæk viede han HKH PRINS JOAKIM OG ALEXANDRA. Så mund ikke han blev tilgivet🤣
She finally got her wish to be reunited with her beloved husband. RIP lovely lady.
It's beautiful to see so many people came out to pay their last respects to the Empress

Thank you for the background story.
Ferenc rupeck I’ve seen a number of TH-cam documentaries about the descendants of King Christian IX of Denmark. Very informative.

I love her. I’m so glad she finally got to go home to be buried with her husband. I know she was a Danish princess but I think Russia was her home.
Our Princess Royal. 🇩🇰
Вечная Светлая Память Великой Марии Фёдоровне 🙏❤
Respekt, Deres Majestæt !!!
