- The deserted Russian mining settlement Pyramiden is located in Billefjorden, opposite the majestic Nordenskiöld glacier. Pyramiden is a Russian settlement and coal mining community on the archipelago of Svalbard, Norway. Founded by Sweden in 1910 and sold to the Soviet Union in 1927, Pyramiden was closed in 1998 and has since remained largely abandoned with most of its infrastructure and buildings still in place.
