Ozyorsk, Closed nuclear town in Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia

Ozyorsk stands at an elevation of 240 meters near Lake Irtyash, encompassing an area with specialized nuclear facilities and residential districts.

The town emerged in 1945 as Chelyabinsk-40, later renamed Chelyabinsk-65, and received its current name in 1994 after serving as a plutonium production center.

The educational system includes sixteen secondary schools, specialized English institutions, and an engineering institute connected to major Russian universities.

Entry to Ozyorsk requires special permits due to its closed status, with strict security measures controlling access through designated checkpoints.

The Mayak nuclear facility in Ozyorsk processes nuclear materials and employs approximately 15,000 people, making it a central point for Russian atomic operations.
