Lubny Raion

Lubny Raion is an administrative district in central Ukraine's Poltava Oblast that includes the city of Lubny and several surrounding communities as its main centers. The area consists of both urban and rural settlements spread across the territory.

The district was established in the early 20th century as an administrative unit and underwent major reorganization in the 2020s through Ukraine's administrative reform. This consolidation merged several smaller regions into the structure that exists today.

The region carries strong connections to Cossack traditions that remain alive in local monuments and the stories people tell about their ancestors. Visitors sense this heritage through place names, oral traditions, and the way communities remember their past.

The city of Lubny serves as the main point of contact for administration and visitor information about the district. Visitors should note that the district includes both accessible towns and more remote villages spread across the region.

The Mharsky Monastery within the district contains a Ukrainian Baroque cathedral from the 17th century alongside a neoclassical bell tower added later. This mixing of architectural styles shows how different building traditions were layered over time.
