Angarlag
Angarlag, also Angarstroy, Angarsky ITL (Russian: Ангарлаг, Ангарстрой, Ангарский ИТЛ) was a Gulag labor camp during 1947-1960 headquartered in Bratsk, Irkutsk Oblast, RSFSR. Initially, it was under the control of the Western Directorate of Baikal-Amur Mainline Construction and Camps. In 1948 it was resubordinated to the Chief Directorate of Railroad Construction Camps, later directly to GULAG.[1][2][3]
Its major projects were the construction of segments of Baikal-Amur Mainline and a bridge across Angara.[2]
In 1948 the Taishetlag was merged into Angarlag. Later some other divisions and enterprises were transferred to Angarlag.[2]
