Vorkuta
Vorkuta, Russia
Vorkuta is situated in a
permafrost zone near the
Arctic Circle, and it is the
easternmost town in Europe.
After the beginning of Stalin’s
mass repressions in Vorkuta
was formed one of the most
cruel Gulag camp. Prisoner’s
forced labour was used for
the coal mining. More than
200 thousand prisoners died
in Vorkuta. After the Fall of
the USSR profitability of coal
mines was doubted. The collapse
of the Soviet economy
set in motion the decline of
Vorkuta. Many people left
their houses and moved from
Vorkuta. Vorkuta became
one of the most rapidly dying
cities in Russia.
