Roslavl, Administrative center in Smolensk Oblast, Russia
Roslavl is a town in Roslavlsky District within Smolensk Oblast in central Russia. The settlement sits at the crossing of several major roads and serves as a hub for the surrounding villages and towns.

The local museum displays artifacts from the region and offers visitors a window into the lives of earlier generations. Wooden houses stand beside Soviet apartment blocks and tell the story of how the town changed over the centuries.
