I present to your attention the Medal of the city of Slavutych, the city in which I personally live. I will briefly tell you about him: Slavutych got its name from the Old Slavic name of the Dnipro river. The city was built in the period from 1986 to 1988, in less than 2 years. Construction began immediately after the accident at the Chernobyl NPP to provide housing for those who worked at the Chernobyl NPP and their families. They were evacuated from the city of Pripyat.. The economic and social situation of the city is still heavily influenced by the power plant and other Chernobyl zone installations. Many of the residents still work in the energy industry in the region. Architects and builders from eight union republics took part in the construction of the city: Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Ukraine and Russia, which added a national flavor to the development of each city-planning quarter.The item is taken from a private collection.
