Hlyboka

Hlyboka (Ukrainian: Глибока; German and Polish: Hliboka; Romanian: Adâncata) is an urban-type settlement in Chernivtsi Raion, Chernivtsi Oblast of western Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Hlyboka urban hromada, one of the amalgamated hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population: 9,376 (2020 est.)[2]

History

Before World War II, large parts of lands of Hlyboka were owned by Polish noble families: until 1892 by Prince Adam Sapieha, then by Bronislaw Skibniewski (1830–1904) and later by his son Aleksander Skibniewski (1868–1942).

Until 18 July 2020, Hlyboka served as an administrative center of Hlyboka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Chernivtsi Oblast to three. The area of Hlyboka Raion was merged into Chernivtsi Raion.[3][4]
