Likovsky ITL ( Russian: Ликовский исправительно-трудовой лагерь), Likovlag ( Russian: Ликовлаг), or Construction site number 204 ( Russian: строительство № 204) was a Soviet Gulag labour camp in Moscow oblast whose inmates built the Vnukovo airport.
The concentration camp was established on 16 August 1938. [1] It was located between the villages Likova and Izvarino, Kuntsevsky rayon, Moscow Oblast. The construction was personally overseen by Kliment Voroshilov. [2]
Prisoners of Likovlag were also working on the construction of a residential building for the Soviet elite on the Frunzenskaya embankment in central Moscow. [3] [1]
The camp was closed down soon after completion of the construction of Vnukovo airport in late 1941. [1]
