Anna V. writes in her autobiography:
"Curiously enough there was no church on this Polish estate, but during the illness of the Tsarevich a chapel was installed in a large green tent in the garden. A new confessor, Father Alexander, celebrated mass and after the first celebration he walked in solemn procession from the altar to the sickroom bearing with him holy communion for the sick boy"

The tent had a dual purpose if I recall correctly.  The tent was already in place and used as a dining salon.

The  tsarevich became injured when he fell in a small boat.    Since  the estate had no church,  a portable set of church Icons were set up in one end of this dining tent.  Therefore the suite was able to have prayers for the Trasevich in this green tent.

I think I have it somewhere saved in my bunch, but unfortunately I can't gain access to my computer right now, since it i crashed and waits for repairing. I assume it was taken in 1907. :)

Here, Catholic Church also celebrates the same Saint-Nicholas, wh is known as "Nicholas of Bari", since his reliques are buried there. But he was born in Turkey.

However, I've checked the "Birthday" thread and it seems that Russian Orthodox desn't celebrates Saint-Nicholas the same day than Greek Orthodox and Rumanian Orthodox...
