Hola Prystan (Ukrainian: Го́ла При́стань, pronounced [ˈɦɔɫɐ ˈprɪstɐnʲ]) is a city in Skadovsk Raion, Kherson Oblast, southern Ukraine. It hosts the administration of the Hola Prystan urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] It has a population of 13,760. (2021 est.)[2]
The Konka, a tributary of the Dnieper, flows through the city.
Administrative status
Until 18 July, 2020, Hola Prystan was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and the center of Hola Prystan Municipality. It also served as the administrative center of Hola Prystan Raion, though it did not belong to the raion. The municipality was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kherson Oblast to five. The area of Hola Prystan Municipality was merged into Skadovsk Raion.[3][4]
History
Hola Prystan literally meaning barren pier, was founded in 1709 by Zaporizhian Cossacks as Holyi Pereviz (Barren Ford). Since 1785, it has been called Hola Prystan.
Hola Pristan was granted the status of regional town on May 17, 2013.
The city has been occupied by Russian forces since 2022, with the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[5]
