City in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine
Pidhorodne (Ukrainian: Підгородне, IPA: [pidɦoˈrɔdne]) is a city in Dnipro Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Pidhorodne urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population: 19,138 (2022 estimate).[2] In 2001, the population was 17,763.
The populated place is known since 1600 as a "wintering place" (zymivnyk) of Cossacks from Samar and carried a name Bohorodytski Khutory (hamlets of Theotokos).
Soon after the liquidation of the Zaporozhian Sich, in 1778 those hamlets were united into a "state military sloboda" of Pidhorodne being located near the newly established Yekaterinoslav (before being moved to the right bank of Dnieper).
