Lymanske

Lymanske is a small town in Odessa Oblast located in southern Ukraine at a low elevation near sea level. It functions as an administrative center serving the surrounding rural areas and communities.

The town was founded in 1798 as a residential settlement in what is now Ukraine. Over the following centuries, it underwent several administrative reorganizations that reshaped its role within the regional structure.

The town's multilingual naming reflects the regional linguistic diversity, with Belarusian and Russian variants showing historical connections to neighboring cultures. Local names carry traces of the different communities that have shaped the area over time.

The town is relatively easy to reach and serves as a convenient base for exploring the southern Odessa region. Visitors should expect simple amenities and local conditions typical of a rural administrative center.

The settlement was part of Zeltzka Volost until 1939 and then belonged to Rozdilna Raion for most of the 20th century before administrative changes in 2020. These shifting boundaries reflect the complex political transformations that reshaped the region over time.
