The history of women prisoners of Karlag is connected with the history of GULAG. The study of the chosen topic makes a valuable contribution to the scientific understanding of the history of GULAG, the identification of regional features of coercive measures based on gender. A holistic view of the history of GULAG is impossible without studying the female contingent of the ITL. The article traces the everyday life of women prisoners of Karlag during the Great Patriotic War. The key aspects of the stay of the female contingent of Karlag during wartime related to everyday life are revealed: housing and living arrangements, food and medical and sanitary provision, and the regime of detention. As sources, the author uses documents found in the State Archives of the Karaganda Region (office records, archival and investigative files of women serving sentences in Karlag), published memoirs of victims of repression.
