Pechora, Administrative town in Komi Republic, Russia
Pechora extends across 28.9 square kilometers along the banks of the Pechora River, near the northern section of the Ural Mountains.
The town originated in 1940 as a labor camp settlement, later receiving official town status in 1949 during the post-war development of northern Russia.
The Pechora Museum maintains a dedicated exhibition space containing documents and objects from the former Gulag period, preserving regional memory.
The town connects to other regions through the Pechora Airport and Railway system, serving as a transportation center in the Komi Republic.
Pechora experiences 78 days of white nights annually from May 19 to August 30, when darkness never completely falls over the region.
