White Army general reburied in Moscow after remains brought from China

The Associated Press

Published: January 13, 2007

MOSCOW: The body of Vladimir Kappel, a general in the White Army that fought the Bolsheviks in Russia's Civil War, was reburied Saturday in Moscow after being brought from China.

The body was buried in the cemetery at Donskoi Monastery, which in czarist times was one of the most prestigious cemeteries for members of the aristocracy.

Kappel was a leader of White Army forces in Siberia. He died in 1920 at age 36 as the forces retreated from the Irkutsk region, and his remains were taken to Harbin, China, where many Russians fleeing the Bolsheviks had taken refuge.

The body had been buried in one of Harbin's Russian Orthodox churches, but the church was destroyed under Mao Tse-tung in 1949 and it was only last year that the remains were found.

Since the fall of Communism in 1991, Russia has brought back the remains of many czarist figures; Czarina Maria Feodorvna, the mother of the last czar, Nicholas II, was brought from Denmark last year for burial in St. Petersburg.

White Army General Kappel may be canonized in future

12 January 2007, 14:27

Moscow, January 12, Interfax - White Army General Vladimir Kappel, whose remains are due to be reburied in Moscow on Saturday, may be canonized pending further confirmation of his sanctity, the Moscow Patriarchate says.

"The canonization, or glorification, of General Kappel is currently being affected by the use of his glorious name in the historical and historiographical context," archpriest Dimitry Smirnov, head of the Moscow Patriarchate department for inter-relations with the Armed Forces, said at a press conference in Moscow.

Earlier he said that the remains of the general, discovered by a Russian forensic team in Harbin in early December, had been undisturbed. All bones, excluding his amputated feet, are well preserved. His beard and hair are so well preserved that one can "recognize Kappel by his haircut." His uniform and epaulets were also undamaged.

"The complete undamaged state of the remains is of course a miracle, considering that Kappel lay in the ground for 86 years," the priest said.

Official Church canonization currently "has no important role, it has not been discussed," he said. Prince Dmitry Donskoy was canonized only 600 years after his death, he said.

Reburial of Kappel's remains will be held on Saturday morning in the necropolis of the Donskoy Monastery in Moscow.
