In March 2024, the Russian prison system will be 145 years old. Alexander Naumov headed the press service of the Main Department for the Execution of Punishments (GUIN) in the Irkutsk region for more than 10 years. Based on secret documents from the archives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, conversations with the head of Ozerlag, as well as numerous interviews with GUIN employees, the author tells the story of the prison business in Russia. The largest convict prison of the Russian Empire - Alexandrovsky Central - was established in 1873 in the village of Alexandrovsky (76 km northwest of Irkutsk). It held political and criminal offenders deported from the European part of Russia for hard labor in Eastern Siberia. F. Dzerzhinsky (1902); M. Frunze (1914); S. Ordzhonikidze (1915-16) and others passed through it. In 1948, the former Aleksandrovsky Central was given the status of Ozerlag - it was to serve sentences for those convicted under Article 58 (political). Among those who served their sentences in Ozerlag: singer Lyudmila Ruslanova, scout Dmitry Bystroletov and others.
