Synelnykove

Synelnykove (Ukrainian: Синельникове, IPA: [sɪˈnɛlʲnɪkowe] ⓘ) is a city and municipality in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine.

August 1868 is considered to be the official date of establishment, Synelnykove was then nothing more than a train station.

[1] It was named in honor of the noble Synelnikov family, who owned these lands until the end of the 18th century.

[3][4][5] Due to the law "On the Condemnation and Prohibition of Propaganda of Russian Imperial Policy in Ukraine and the Decolonization of Toponymy" (in April 2023 signed by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy) the city needs to be renamed.

[7] On 20 March 2024, the Verkhovna Rada Committee on the organization of state power, Local Self-Government, Regional Development and urban planning decided to propose the name Ridnopillia.
