Ivanteyevka

Ivanteyevka is a town in Moscow Oblast that stretches along the Ucha River northeast of the Russian capital. The built environment consists of Soviet-era apartment blocks, smaller industrial sites, and a few public buildings around the central administrative district.

The village of Vanteyevo was founded in 1564 as property of the Trinity Monastery of Sergiev Posad and grew into a textile factory settlement during the 19th century. The place received official town status in 1938.

The name comes from the old village of Vanteyevo, once owned by a monastery and later transformed into a factory settlement. Today families live in apartment blocks and use local shops along the main streets.

The town lies around 30 minutes by suburban train from Moscow and is accessible by several regional road connections. Visitors will find grocery stores and small services along the central streets.

The place originally carried the shorter name Vanteyevo but later received the extended name Ivanteyevka. Today residents use five different postal codes ranging from 141280 to 141284 for individual districts.
