Biography

Mikhail Sergeevich Volkonskiy carried the responsibilities of his noble lineage with calm resolve, tending the forests and waters of the Keila-Joa estate and welcoming neighbors to the quiet grandeur of the manor.

In later years he guided younger stewards with gentle counsel so that the traditions of hospitality and respect for the land endured; his memory rests near the rapids he cherished at Keila-Joa.
