In this episode of our series about Chernobyl, we will speak about the city of Chernobyl itself - which is often mixed up with Pripyat. Pripyat is a modern city of nuclear scientists, founded in 1970, and Chernobyl is an ancient Polesie city founded in 1193 and gave the name to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant built 12 kilometers from it.
In pre-revolutionary times, the city of Chernobyl was a typical Jewish town with several synagogues, hospitals, schools and industrial enterprises. Now the old Jewish part of Chernobyl is completely abandoned, and its empty streets resemble a ghost town.
After the accident in 1986, the bulk of the population of the city of Chernobyl was evacuated, and now two-storey and four-storey buildings in the city center are used as shift dormitories for workers in the Exclusion Zone.
