Tsuman

Tsuman is an urban-type settlement in Kivertsi Raion, spanning several square kilometers with residential neighborhoods and industrial facilities. A veneer factory forms the economic core of the community and shapes its physical layout and character.

The settlement first appeared in written records in 1557, when the area was part of the Volhynian Voivodeship administrative region. It remained under this jurisdiction until the close of the 18th century, when regional boundaries changed.

Woodworking traditions shape the character of this settlement, with a local veneer factory continuing operations that began in the early 1900s. This craft heritage connects residents to the surrounding forests and remains central to how the community sees itself.

The settlement maintains regular transportation connections to the Kivertsi district center and offers basic services for daily needs. Visitors can find shops, facilities, and infrastructure typical of a working industrial community.

The veneer factory processes specialized wood products from local species including oak, ash, alder, beech, pine, maple, and cherry. This craft specialization goes largely unnoticed by outsiders despite producing materials that supply regional construction and furniture makers.
