The easiest way to find out the zip code is to ask a question at the post office. This can be done either by phone or in person. In post offices, the index is usually indicated on information boards or posted in a conspicuous place.
Step 2
In Soviet times, postal codes were often written in porches and on mailboxes. In some houses, you can still find the postcode. The indices have not changed since then, so you can also confidently trust the data on old envelopes and postcards.
