Considering today is the anniversary of the Vostok 4 launch, I had an interesting question to post. Did both Vostok 3 and 4 use the same launch pad? Wikipedia marks that both were launched from LC-1 "Gagarin's Start", is this the case. Considering the damage a launch pad goes through during a launch, and a 24 hour turnaround time, I wonder if a different pad was used.

All Vostok and Voskhod missions launched from the same pad LC-1 (Gagarin's Start).
