Severomorsk is a city of Naval glory, the main base of the Northern Fleet of the Russian Federation. It is here that the fleet headquarters, the parking lots of warships and submarines are located. The history of the city is inextricably linked with maritime traditions, here literally everything reminds of the valor of the Russian sailors who are on duty day after day. To issue one-time passes for 20 days, you must provide the details of the passport or birth certificate of the participant of the tour. Severomorsk grew up on the site of the former camp of Vaenga, founded in the late 19th century. The indigenous inhabitants of the Kola Peninsula — the Sami-came here and found a small mountain river full of fish. In the early 20th century, in addition to the Sami and Pomor people, Finns and Russians lived here. After the October events of 1917, the Finns, for the most part, left for their historical homeland. According to the regional Museum of Local Lore, in 1917, in Vaenga had a total population of 13. It was only in the 20s that the active development of these territories began.
