✴️ About Alexander Alekhine
♟ Alexander Alekhine
🔸 Russian - French chess Master
🔸 Fourth World Chess Champion
🔰 Alexander Alekhine was born October 31, 1892 — at least according to the Gregorian calendar which is generally used today. But at the time when Alekhine was born, the Julian calendar was widely used in Russia and therefore the date given in Alekhine's birth certificate is October 19, 1892.
Chess historian Edward Winter did extensive research to establish the correct date of Alekhine's birth.
🔰 Alekhine's grave is in Paris, at the Cimetière de Montparnasse (section 8, close to the northern main way), where he is buried together with his third or, perhaps, fourth wife, Grace Wishaar (1876-1956). After his death in 1946 — which itself gave rise to a number of legends and conspiracy theories — the fourth World Champion was buried in Estorial. There were plans to transfer his mortal remains to France later, but these were only realised ten years later, after an initiative by FIDE.
🔰 On May 25, 1956, an imposing stone of red granite was erected on his grave, with a portrait of Alekhine in white Carrara marble. There is a chess board on the grave, also made from granite. In 1999 the tombstone broke after a storm, but a couple of years later the stone was restored thanks to the financial support of the Russian entrepreneur Andrey Filatov, who today is President of the Russian Chess Federation.

Remembering Alexander Alekhine
Alexander Alekhine himself thought that he was born on November 1, 1892, but historians checked again and concluded that he was born on October 31. The confusion seems to be due to an error in the conversion of the Julian to the Gregorian calendar. All the…
