Barvinkove
Barvinkove (Ukrainian: Барвінкове, IPA: [bɐrˈwʲinkowe] ⓘ; Russian: Барвинково, romanized: Barvinkovo) is a city in Izium Raion, Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Barvinkove urban hromada, one of the communities of Ukraine. Population: 7,840 (2022 estimate).
Barvinkove was first mentioned in 1653.[citation needed]
At the beginning of its existence, Barvinkove was a wintering place (zymivnyk), receiving the status of a sloboda in the 18th century. The Cossacks built a wooden fortress on Chumatska Hill, from which they could see all the approaches to the town. In 1680 and 1690, the city suffered a plague epidemic.
In 1708, Tsar Peter the Great visited the city, trying to persuade the people of Barvinok not to fight against him, but despite this, the local Cossacks supported Mazepa and fought for independence.
In the times of the Nova Sich, Barvinokova Stinka was the administrative center of the Barvinkove Palanka. The last colonel, Ivan Garadzha, poured lard over the skin of more than one Sloboda lord, which Kharkiv Governor Shcherbynin complained about to Potemkin. Thus, in 1774, after the participation of Barvinkove residents in the Cossack uprising of Omelian Pugachev, Garadzha disarmed the punishers, and dipped their commander, Colonel Dolgorukyi, in a barrel of tar, rolled him in feathers, put him backwards on a stool, and sent him to the Izium regiment in this form. I. Garadzha also destroyed the settlements of the Sloboda Cossacks Grushuvakha and Velyka Kamyshevakha, which were built on the land of the Zaporizhzhia army without permission.
Despite the decree of Catherine II on the eternal freedom of the Cossacks of Barvinkivska Stina, which did not exist, after the liquidation of the Zaporizhzhia Sich in 1775, a significant part of the residents of Barvinkove moved to the Kuban, where they founded their own village. The resettlement was led by a descendant of Ivan Barvinok's family. And after Catherine II visited the Cossack church in 1787 on her way from the Crimea, where women were forbidden to enter, they burned their shrine because the whore Katka had desecrated it. The Barvinkova Stinka settlement received the status of a military settlement and until 1924, instead of streets, it had hundreds of settlements, of which there were 12, and was part of the Izium Hussars (Dragoons) Regiment. In honor of their heroism, the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a "church on blood," was built in 1884.
Barvinkove turned into a trading volost town, where six fairs are held annually.
During the Russian-Ukrainian War of 1917-1922 (the Soviet Union was founded in 1921), the Battle of Barvinkove took place. Barvinkove is one of the districts where Nestor Makhno's units operated.
