This is a lighthouse building design with the old artsitektur berdarda on the northern coast of Russia. Located in a vast territory to put several thousand miles and all of this coastline is in the Arctic Circle. But in this north coast there is always a short way to ship cargo to travel from Eastern Russia to the West. Thus, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union decided to build a chain of lighthouses to guide ships find their way in the dark polar night on an uninhabited beach Soviet Russian Empire. So has been done and a series of lighthouse has been erected. They must be fully autonomous, since they are hundreds and hundreds of miles aways from populated areas. After reviewing different ideas about how to make them work for years without service and an external power supply, the Soviet engineers decided to implement atomic energy to power structures.
Then, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the unattended automatic lighthouses did it job for some time, but after some time they collapsed too. Mostly as a result of the hunt for the metals like copper and other stuff which were performed by the looters. They didn’t care or maybe even didn’t know the meaning of the “Radioactive Danger” sign and ignored them, breaking in and destroying the equipment. It sounds creepy but they broke into the reactors too causing all the structures to become radioactively polluted.
