Sheptytskyi, Mining city in Lviv Oblast, Ukraine

The urban center extends along the Bug River at 150 meters elevation, featuring residential districts and industrial zones in western Ukraine.

Founded in 1692 as Krystynopol by Feliks Kazimierz Potocki, the settlement changed names and jurisdictions from Polish Kingdom through Habsburg Empire to Ukraine.

The city holds several educational establishments, including branches of Lviv National Polytechnic University and a specialized mining college for regional development.

Danylo Halytskyi International Airport in Lviv operates 67 kilometers from the city center, providing transportation connections for residents and visitors.

In 1990, this municipality became the first in the former Soviet Union to remove its Lenin monument, marking a shift in political direction.
