Mykolaiv, Maritime port city in southern Ukraine
Located at the confluence of the Southern Bug and Inhul rivers, Mykolaiv extends across both banks with wide streets in a geometric pattern.
Prince Grigory Potemkin established the city in 1789 as a naval base, naming it after Saint Nicholas to protect Russian maritime interests.
The Museum of Shipbuilding and Fleet preserves the maritime legacy through exhibits of naval engineering and regional seafaring traditions.
The city functions as a transportation center with sea ports, river terminals, railway stations, and extensive road connections to major Ukrainian cities.
Three large shipyards in Mykolaiv manufacture vessels of different sizes, from small boats to ocean-going ships and specialized military craft.
