Roslyakovo (Russian: Росляко́во) was a closed city with a population of about 8,000 located about 15 kilometers north of Murmansk.[7] Until January 1, 2015 it was an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) under the administrative jurisdiction of the closed-administrative territorial formation of Severomorsk in Murmansk Oblast, Russia, located on the Kola Peninsula on the Kola Bay, 6 kilometers (3.7 mi) west of Severomorsk proper.

It was abolished, with its territory merged into the city of Murmansk, on January 1, 2015.[2] Population: 8,696 (2010 Census);[3] 9,458 (2002 Census);[8] 11,981 (1989 Census).[9]

History

It was founded in 1896.[5] The colony of Roslyakovo was one of the twenty-one included into Alexandrovskaya Volost of Alexandrovsky Uyezd of Arkhangelsk Governorate upon its establishment on July 1, 1920.[10] Urban-type settlement status was granted to Roslyakovo in 1959.[5]

Roslyakovo was in jurisdiction of the closed administrative-territorial formation of Severomorsk until January 1, 2015,[1] when it was abolished, with its territory merged into the city of Murmansk.[2]

There is no restaurant or cafe in town. Formerly, there was a medical clinic. There are "a few 7-Eleven-sized grocery stores."[7] The Church of St. Michael the Archangel, founded in 1991, is the only church in the town.[11]

Most of the population are in the Russian navy, or work as navy contractors. Shipbuilding is a local industry. Rosneft, the state owned oil company, is opening facilities in the town.[7]
