Novoslobidka (Ukrainian: Новослобідка; literally, New Sloboda) is a village (a selo) in the Zaporizhia Raion (district) of Zaporizhia Oblast in southern Ukraine. Its population was 548 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census.[2]

The settlement was first founded in 1859 as Rosengarten (Ukrainian: Розенгартен) by German-speaking Mennonites settling the Chortitza Colony;[3] it was renamed to Novoslobidka in 1920.[2] Administratively, it belongs to the Dolynske Rural Council, a local government area.[2] It is located west of the Khortytskyi District of the city of Zaporizhia, the oblast's administrative center.
