Orzhytsia (Ukrainian: Оржиця, Russian: Оржица) is a rural settlement located in Lubny Raion of Poltava Oblast in Ukraine. It is located on the Orzhytsia, a right tributary of the Sula, a tributary of the Dnieper. Orzhytsia hosts the administration of Orzhytsia settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[2] Population: 3,378 (2022 estimate).[1]

History

Until 18 July 2020, Orzhytsia served as the administrative center of Orzhytsia Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of Ukraine's administrative reform, which reduced the number of raions in Poltava Oblast to four. The area of Orzhytsia Raion was merged into Lubny Raion.[3][4] Until 26 January 2024, Orzhytsia was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Orzhytsia became a rural settlement.[5]
