Das Dorf Zaput’e, Oblast Pskow, Russland, 1815–18
Nur eines von Tausenden postsowjetischen Dörfern. Völlig verlassen. Die Felder verwandeln sich wieder in einen Wald.

I read somewhere that Russia alone has some 30000 abandoned villages.
is this a website to see old maps on same locations?
The dude discovered urbanization in 2025… Better late than never.
so it became all green all of a sudden, who cares
Google maps link:

Not to be confused with [the *other* Zaput’e in Pskov Oblast](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Zaput'e,+Pskov+Oblast,+Russia/@57.8230789,28.0286211,956m/), which isn’t abandoned yet but looks close to it…
Which makes us wonder, how many more villages/civilizations have already been covered by nature thousands of years ago and we have no clue about 🤔
Per peeve: the order should be old-new, left to right.
Russia declined a lot during the 1980s and 1990s
This is so sad. Farms/ranches are important and decentralized nation is healthy nation.
The fields in the 1950 photo seem awfully small for collectivised farming: usually, when looking at pictures of the iron curtain from above, even today, on the eastern side fields are much larger, and on the western side much smaller.
Does anyone have any idea why it could be this way in the picture?
plus, they’re trying to do this to Ukraine
A failed state with a failed government fighting in a failed war.
What a place for urbex would that be.
The population of the Pskov region in 1950 was around 1.5–1.6 million people, and by 2025 it is expected to decline to approximately 580 thousand people.
World would be such a better place if this happened to entire Russia.
It was better in 1950 but people will bring anti soviet propaganda and tell us how good it is now !
Removal of internal passports end of collective farms and support for some heavy industries all helped push these villages to a death spiral.
