Mtsensk, Administrative center in Oryol Oblast, Russia

Located on the Zusha River, Mtsensk extends across both banks with elevation of 160 meters above sea level in central Russia.

The fortress settlement, first documented in 1146 as part of Principality of Chernigov, later transformed from Lithuanian control to Muscovy in 1505.

The city features traditional Russian architecture from different periods, with numerous residential buildings displaying regional construction methods and decorative elements.

Regular train connections link Mtsensk to Moscow and other major cities through the main railway line that extends toward Kharkiv.

During World War II, the city became a strategic point in the Battle of Kursk, marking one of the largest tank confrontations in military history.
