Slobozhanske (Ukrainian: Слобожанське; Russian: Слобожанское) is a rural settlement in Dnipro Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine. The populated place is part of the Dnipro urban sprawl being its immediate northern suburb. Slobozhanske hosts the administration of Slobozhanske settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[2] Population: 14,661 (2022 estimate).[1]

History

The first settlements on the territory of modern Slobozhanske appeared as early as the second millennium AD. At the dawn of history, it was home to many nomadic peoples and tribes. The Scythians, Sarmatians and ant-people of the Slavic tribe left their traces here, and with the formation of Kievan Rus, in the 9th-12th centuries, the paths to the south lay through the steppes.

Later, the wagon rolls along the Chumatsky Way left Poltava through Tsarichanka, Chumaky. In 1778, the settlement of Pidhorodne was formed, which has already grown into a city in our time. The origin of the name of the slobodka is connected with the fact that the sloboda was located near the provincial town of Katerynoslav (below the town).

Created in 1987 out of the neighboring city of Pidhorodne, the settlement was previously known as Yuvileine (Ukrainian: Ювілейне) in honor of the "Great October" (the 1917 Russian Bolshevik coup-d'état) until 2016. It was renamed Slobozhanske by the Verkhovna Rada according to the law prohibiting names of Communist origin.[3]

Until 26 January 2024, Slobozhanske was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Slobozhanske became a rural settlement.[4]

Creating a settlement hromada

In 2015, the team of the Yuvileine settlement council sent all territorially adjacent village councils a proposal for unification within the framework of local self-government reform. Only one responded - the Stepnyanske village council, due to which the Yuvileine territorial hromada was formed, which was later renamed the Slobozhanske settlement hromada.
