Livadia Palace Yalta Conference
Details:
On the south side of the road.
MuseumLivadia Palace, a former summer retreat of the Russian Tsars in Livadia, near Yalta on the Crimean Peninsula, in Ukrainian territory occupied by Russia since the 2014 invasion. During 4-11 February 1945, the ''Big Three'' -- Allied leaders U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet Premier Josif Stalin -- met there for the Yalta Conference, which dealt with important decisions on the progress of World War II and shaped the post-war international order.
Plenary sessions of the 1945 Conference were conducted in the State Dining Room (known as the White Hall or in Russian '' ''), and the original round table around which the delegations that met were originally maintained in that hall. However, recently the Room was refurbished in the original Tsarist period style for official events, and the Conference table was moved into the adjacent vestibule.
In 1945, the U.S. Delegation was housed in 43 rooms within Livadia Palace during the Conference, while British and Soviet delegations were housed in other locations. The Palace now also includes memorial offices for President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill,
including collections of books, other documentation, and memorabilia from the Hyde Park Presidential Library and British archives, respectively.
