Sarov (in russo: Саров?) è una città chiusa della Russia europea centro-orientale, nell'oblast' di Nižnij Novgorod. Era conosciuta come Arzamas-16 (Арзама́с-16) dal 1946 al 1991, mentre fino al 1995 era nominata Kremlyov (Кремлёв). La città era chiusa perché era il centro russo per la ricerca nucleare. Popolazione: 92.047 (Census 2010). La storia della città può essere divisa in due periodi. Prima della Rivoluzione era una dei luoghi santi della Chiesa Ortodossa a causa del suo monastero, dove visse Serafino di Sarov. Poi, dagli anni quaranta del XX sec., divenne il centro di ricerca e produzione per le armi nucleari prima sovietiche e poi russe.
