Zelenogradsk, Baltic seaside resort in Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia

Located on the Sambian coastline near the Curonian Spit, Zelenogradsk extends along the Baltic Sea shore with Germanic architecture and sandy beaches.

Originally named Cranz until 1946, the settlement developed from an Old Prussian fishing village into a prominent East Prussian resort after railway construction in 1885.

The municipality maintains multiple cat-related installations throughout the streets, including dedicated feeding stations, mini-benches, and specialized vending machines for feline inhabitants.

The town center features numerous souvenir shops, cafes, and accommodations within walking distance of the beach, serving a population of approximately 17,000 residents.

The Murarium Museum, established in 2012 within a 1905 water tower, displays an extensive collection of cat statuettes and houses several resident felines.
