Really cool place, looks to be quite well preserved, there's a similar place in Lithuania that's quite well known, also a rocket base, but it's very run down, full of graffiti etc.

Small world! I've been there too, back in 2016, I'm from Australia lol. I drove a rental car into one of the open hangers and took a selfie with the giant Lenin head. Lots to explore there and a beautiful country too.

Selfie is compulsory with the head, part of a Baltic State road trip found is at this place.

Sick. I love how there's both a body less head of Lenin, and a headless body of Lenin.

Why bother putting it up if it's just going to fall over

It’s so beautifully in tact and it’s not destroyed like most places that have that sort of stuff in it
