Just accidently spotted it on the map. Problem is that it was found in 1936 (and had a different name then).

Built in 1936? I wonder if it was a gulag camp at first.

Not entirely. At first it was just a shipyard with a little settlement for workers which was just called Shipbuilding. But indeed, in 1938 a gulag camp was built on the neighbouring island and the settlement was granted the status of a city (and renamed after Molotov).

Interesting and thanks. Perhaps BNC could eliminate the town in a future patch.
