Dolynske (Ukrainian: Долинське; Russian: Долинское) is a village (a selo) in the Zaporizhzhia Raion (district) of Zaporizhzhia Oblast in southern Ukraine. Its population was 690 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census.[3] Dolynske is the administrative center of the Dolynske Rural Council, a local government area.[3]

The village was first founded in 1809 as Kronstal or Kronsthal (Ukrainian: Кронсталь) by German-speaking Mennonites settling the Chortitza Colony.[4][5][6] In 1892, its name was changed to Pavlivka (Ukrainian: Павлівка, Russian: Павловка). Since 1963, the village is known as Dolynske.[3]
