Pidhorodna, Railway settlement in Pervomaisk Raion, Ukraine
Pidhorodna is a railway settlement in the Pervomaisk area positioned along the Siniukha River in a valley setting. The location serves as a junction point where multiple railway lines connect, facilitating movement between eastern regions of Ukraine.
The settlement was established in 1899 as a railway station during a period of rapid rail expansion in the southern Russian Empire. Its creation as a junction point reflected broader transportation infrastructure development across eastern territories.
Local residents maintain traditional Ukrainian agricultural practices while incorporating elements from the settlement's railway heritage into their community activities.
The railway station connects to destinations including Haivoron, Pomichna, and Podilsk via connections through Pervomaisk as the regional hub. Most visitor information and timetable details are available at the station building itself.
The settlement held the status of an urban-type settlement for many decades until 2024, when it was officially reclassified as a rural settlement. This administrative change resulted from nationwide reforms affecting settlement classifications across Ukraine.
