Alexander II. Nikolajewitsch (russisch Алекса́ндр II Никола́евич; * 17.jul. / 29. April 1818greg. in Moskau; † 1.jul. / 13. März 1881greg. in Sankt Petersburg) war 1855 bis 1881 Kaiser[1] von Russland aus dem Haus Romanow-Holstein-Gottorp

Wegen der so genannten „Großen Reformen“,[2] vor allem wegen der Abschaffung der Leibeigenschaft während seiner Regierungszeit verliehen schon die Zeitgenossen Alexander II. den Beinamen „Zar-Befreier“ (russisch Oswoboditel).
