Vasilyevsky Mokh (Russian: Васи́льевский Мох) is an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) in Kalininsky District of Tver Oblast, Russia, located about 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of the city of Tver.
[8] In 1928, peat extraction started in the swamps north of Tver, and Vasilyevsky Mokh was founded as an aggregation of several settlements serving the peat production enterprises in the area.
Tverskoy District, with the administrative center in Tver, was established within Tver Okrug of Moscow Oblast, and the area was transferred to Tverskoy District.
On July 23, 1930, the okrugs were abolished, and the districts were directly subordinated to the oblast.
[9] There is a passenger line from Doroshikha (in the city limits of Tver) to Vasilyevsky Mokh, however, the passenger traffic to Vasilyevsky Mokh discontinued in 2013, and the line is likely to be demolished.
