Even after the Zar Alexander I prohibited all the secret societies in the Russian Empire they still existed in Odessa. Such magnificent figures in the history of Odessa as Duke de Richelieu, count Vorontsov were directly related to the Freemasonary. In Historical Museum there is Vorontsov pendant displayed like an еvidence of his connection with the secret society.
