Совхоза Останкино, State farm settlement in Gabovskoye rural locality, Russia
Sovkhoz Ostankino is a state farm settlement in Dmitrovsky District, Moscow Oblast, located in a region where agricultural lands gradually transition toward forest areas. The settlement sits along regional roads that connect it to surrounding communities and the broader transportation network of the district.
The settlement was established in the early 1960s when the main state farm operation relocated from Moscow to make way for the construction of Ostankino TV Center. This relocation marked a turning point that led to the formation of a new rural community in the Dmitrovsky District.
The settlement maintains educational facilities including a secondary school, kindergarten number 57 Oduvanchik, and a school of arts for the local population.
The settlement can be reached by regional roads and provides basic services for residents and visitors. When exploring the area, keep in mind that the terrain is varied and having a local road map may help you navigate this rural region more easily.
The settlement marks the source point of a nameless tributary flowing into the Akulikha River, connecting to the broader Ucha River basin system.
