In 1941-1945, the camp was evacuated to the Altai Region in Siberia where 200 children and staff helped local hospitals, and gathered metal for tanks and aircraft production.Īfter the war, the damaged premises of Artek were rebuilt and the camp continued its work, welcoming not only Soviet children but also those from other countries, including Belgium, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Bulgaria, China, Korea, and Vietnam. Restoring this camp to its former glory became the main goal for the new Russian administration in Crimea.įounded in 1925 as a health camp for children who suffered during the years of civil war, Artek gradually transformed into a year-round educational complex that never stopped working, even during World War II. 'Everything was worn out and in desperate need of not just repair work, but overall reconstruction (…) Such a large camp is really expensive to maintain and Ukraine couldn't finance it, let alone develop it further,' recalls Alexei Kasprzhak, the current director of Artek. In 2014, when Crimea was reunited with Russia, Artek was in a very poor state. Just three years ago, however, the camp looked very different.

Around 2,000-3,500 children attend the school every three weeks, and 300 kids from the neighboring towns of Gurzuf and Yalta attend it on a regular basis.

There's even a year-round school on the premises that allows children to visit Artek during the academic year without missing classes.
