It's an historic WWI & II Port."Murmansk, from the local Sami word murman meaning "the edge of the earth", is the largest town in the world north of the Arctic Circle. It lies on the eastern shore of Kola Bay, an arm of the Barents Sea in north-western Russia. Before the First World War it was a small village containing only a few hunters and fishermen, but in 1915 it became a supply port for the war and then a base for the British, French, and American expeditionary forces fighting the Bolsheviks in 1918. In World War II Murmansk served as the main port for Anglo-American convoys carrying war supplies to the U.S.S.R. through the Arctic Ocean. Murmansk is ice-free and is Russia's only port with unrestricted access to the Atlantic unlike icebound St. Petersburg or Archangel."
Probably quite an interesting place to visit. I hope you will tell us when you get back.Pam
