Kakhovka is a port city on the Dnieper River in the Kherson Oblast (province) of southern Ukraine. Serving as the administrative center of the Kakhovsky Raion (district), the city itself is also designated as a separate raion within the oblast. It is home to the KZEZO (Electro-Welding Equipment Plant) as well as the Tavria Games festival.
In 1492 Meñli I Giray established a fortress near the site of today’s Kakhovka called İslâm Kermen (later also called Shagin-Girei, presumably after Şahin Giray). It was frequently attacked by Cossacks and was finally destroyed by them under the leadership of Ivan Mazepa in 1695. In 1791 the Russian Colonel D.M. Kulikovsky founded the trade town of Kakhovka. In 1848 the town obtained city rights. In the 1870s–90s the town was renowned for having a huge population of low-income contractors (batraki).
