Nikopol

Nikopol extends along the right bank of the Dnieper River at the Kakhovka Reservoir, featuring numerous factories and metallurgical plants across 50 square kilometers.

The settlement originated in 1639 with the establishment of Mykytynska Zaporizhia Sich, where Bohdan Khmelnytskyi was elected hetman at the Cossack Council in April 1648.

The population of 105,000 residents maintains Ukrainian traditions through annual City Day celebrations on September 28, highlighting local manufacturing and industrial achievements.

The city connects to other regions through its bus station, railway terminal, and river port, while maintaining industrial operations in ferroalloy and steel pipe manufacturing.

The Nikopol Ferroalloy Plant produces approximately 11.5 percent of global manganese alloys, establishing the city as a primary metallurgical center in Europe.
