Opochka, Administrative center in Pskov Oblast, Russia
The town of Opochka stands on the banks of the Velikaya River, with numerous residential buildings and local shops spread across its terrain.
Established in 1414 as a fortress under Pskov's control, Opochka withstood multiple sieges from Lithuanian and German forces during the 15th century.
