pripyat number 3 nursery school
There were 15 primary schools in Pripyat which provided education and care to 5,000 children, in addition to 5 secondary schools and a professional school.
The Pripyat No. 3 Nursery School was one of 5 nursery schools in the city, providing education and care for young children in what once was a warm and welcoming setting.
The unavoidable accessories of this nursery school are the vast number of unsettling dolls, many of which have had various extremities removed or have been decapitated. The rusty frames of cribs for the very young are stacked up in multiple rooms, not having supported a sleeping child in over 3 decades. A piano sits with hammers and strings exposed, having had no Rachmaninov pieces played for quite a long time.
