Dzerzhinsky, Industrial town in Moscow Oblast, Russia.

Located on the Moskva River banks, Dzerzhinsky extends over 15 square kilometers and maintains an elevation of 160 meters above sea level.

The settlement grew around the Ugresha Monastery, established in 1380, and received official town status in 1981 following Soviet administrative reforms.

The Nicholas Ugreshsky Monastery remains the central architectural complex, transformed from a royal residence to a children's labor colony after 1920.

The town contains six secondary schools, professional institutions, and industrial facilities connected by the Lyubertsy-Dzerzhinsky railway system.

The Heat and Power Central #22 facility serves as a primary energy producer for the surrounding Moscow region industrial infrastructure.
