Koryazhma

Koryazhma has served as a pulp-and-paper centre in Arkhangelsk Oblast since the Soviet era. The city stands on the Vychegda River in northern European Russia, upstream from its confluence with the Northern Dvina, a waterway system that has long linked settlements across the Russian North. Its modern identity was shaped by the Koryazhma pulp and paper mill. The place also has older roots: the Koryazhemsky St Nicholas Monastery was founded here in 1535. This meeting of river industry and monastic history gives Koryazhma a distinct place within the oblast.
