Katerynivka, Urban settlement in Luhansk Oblast, Ukraine.
Katerynivka is an urban-type settlement in Luhansk Oblast in Ukraine. It developed as a residential area with apartment blocks, shops, schools, and services that serve the local population.
The settlement was founded in 1955 during the Soviet era as a residential area to house workers for nearby industrial facilities. It developed alongside the region's economic expansion during that period.
The multilingual nature of Katerynivka reflects in its various names: Juwilejne in German, Katerinivka in Spanish, and Катеринівка in Russian.
The settlement is best explored on foot, with shops and schools spread throughout the residential area. Visitor services are limited, so it is mainly suitable for those passing through or staying with local residents.
Following the 2023 administrative reforms, Katerynivka transitions from its urban-type settlement classification as part of Ukraine's territorial governance restructuring.
