History
Founded in September 1967, Mortka emerged as a logging station among swamps and taiga. Over the next decades, it developed into a village, with its growth closely tied to the forest industry.
On June 1, 1972, the settlement of Mortka was classified as an urban-type settlement.
In 1973, Mortka constructed its first school, accommodating 960 students. Other developments included two kindergarten buildings for 250 children, a sports complex, a 40-bed hospital, and a House of Culture with a music school and library. In 2005, a bath and laundry complex was completed, alongside the construction of a wooden Orthodox Church.
Infrastructure improvements continued through the 1990s, with 85% of streets paved. By 2003, two intra-village bus routes were introduced, and the construction of permanent sidewalks began. The “Clean Water” district program led to the establishment of a modern water purification system in 2002.
