Books of Remembrance

The Memorial online database (2025) includes 55,742 victims in the Krasnoyarsk Krai (Region). See Yeniseisk.

30,000 were sent to camps or special settlements elsewhere. Drawing on other sources, however, the database lists more than 12,000 sent to the the Krasnoyarsk Region, some to its camps (1,017), most to its special settlements (11,000).

The map drawn by S.P. Kuchin shows Beryozovka (far left) on the banks of the Yenisei River and Zykovo to its south (click on image to see full picture). Krasnoyarsk-26, today Zheleznogorsk, is due north-east.
