Stavka: Mogilev Headquarters WW1 | Romanov Family Photo Albums | No 7

The Stavka was the high command of the armed forces in the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. In Imperial Russia Stavka refers to the administrative staff, and to the General Headquarters in the late 19th-century Imperial Russian armed forces and subsequently in the Soviet Union. In the summer of 1915, the Tsar himself took personal command. In the years 1915–1917 Stavka was based in Mogilev and the Tsar, Nicholas II, spent long periods there as Commander-in-Chief. His family visited the headquarters from time to time and they spend a few days there together. In such cases the family spent time at the shores of Dnieper and visited nearby villages, as well as monasteries of the region.
