Segezha, Industrial town in Republic of Karelia, Russia
Located on the western shore of Lake Vygozero, Segezha extends across 19 square kilometers of forested terrain at 80 meters above sea level.
The settlement originated in 1914 as a railway station during the construction of the Murmansk Railway line and received official town status in 1943.
The residents of Segezha maintain strong connections to Karelian traditions through regular celebrations of regional customs and seasonal festivities throughout the year.
The Segezha Pulp and Paper Mill provides employment opportunities for local residents while supporting the regional timber processing industry.
The town experiences pronounced seasonal daylight variations, with extended periods of light during summer months due to its northern geographical position.
