Russia’s legendary Aurora cruiser is one of the Pallada-class cruisers which participated in Russo-Japanese war in 1904-1905. In 1917, a blank shot from Aurora's forecastle gun signaled the start of the Winter Palace storm and beginning of the October Revolution. Currently Aurora is preserved as a museum ship and in 2016 it was finally opened after an extensive renovation.
