- Olga Alexandrovna also known as the last Grand Duchess of Russia. She was born in Peterhof Palace in St. Petersburg and belonged to one of the mightiest dynasties of her time. She grew up in the most sparkling palaces of the Russian Empire. After ending up in a catastrophic arranged marriage that went on to get annulled, Olga was forced to flee her home country during the Russian Revolution. She ended up in Denmark and later in Canada. At the end of her life, Olga lived in a small apartment above a beauty salon in Toronto, where she died in 1960. Her life from living in the biggest palace’s to her last home in Canada are the topic of today's video.

Thank you for this post. I live in Toronto and never knew of this story. It is very sad because of all the upheaval she experienced in her life. Rest in Peace Grand Duchess Olga.
My 16th cousin .Her grave is in Toronto Canada . She and her husband lived in Mississauga Ontario for several years .
I was,SO SADDENED,her life was filled with tragedy,and that she didn't get to "Live The Life", she was born to live, was her birthright, to live,a life of opulence, privilege and one she (should've) lived ! Would've (LOVED), to've seen her buried back in the place of her birth, and to be nearer her famy. May GOD, grant her, eternal peace everlasting, and be (Loved), and remembered, 🥺😩😭☦👑🇦🇺
A lady who was blessed with a very diverse life. From Imperial Russia to revolution and murder to quiet family life to the Nazi invasion of Denmark to life in a small flat in Canada. Some people are simply destined to be brushed by history.
You do an excellent job on your history videos!
Well made 😊
