Mining Raion

Mining Raion spreads across the eastern part of Makiivka and includes residential neighborhoods alongside industrial zones near several coal mines. The area is crossed by several transportation routes that connect local communities together.

The district received its official name in 1975 as part of a regional administrative reform to house the growing industrial workforce in Makiivka. This reorganization reflected the growing importance of coal extraction in the city's development.

The district shows the industrial past of the region through its street layouts and buildings shaped by coal mining. Local monuments and structures tell the story of mining work and workers' lives in this area.

The district is well connected by public transportation and major roads that link it to central Makiivka. When visiting, keep in mind that the area includes active industrial facilities and access to certain zones may be restricted.

The district is home to specialized technical schools that prepare students for careers in mining engineering and industrial operations. These facilities are an important part of the local vocational training landscape and reflect the historic importance of mining to the area.
