  • Korosten Raiyon in Zhytomyr Oblast of Ukraine
    KOROSTEN’ CITY AT GLANCE Location: 164 km to the North-West from Kyiv Population: 65,7 thousand people Ancient city founded in year 705 called IsKorosten’ Mayor: Volodymyr Moskalenko Important railway hub of the North-West Railway of Ukraine Industries: Machine-building, production of building materials, wood processing, stone (granite) processing, pharmaceutical, textile and tailoring, metal processing (pipes manufacturing), food industry. After the 1986 accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the area around the city was declared a zone of a voluntary evacuation (so-called 3rd zone). Since then over 90% of the city population has a status of Chernobyl victims. Historical note Korosten’ (ancient name Iskorosten’) is a city of oblast significance and administrative center of Korosten’ rayon. The city was the capital of the Drevlyans ('forest dwellers'), an ancient Slavic tribe that was later incorporated into Kievan Rus′. The name may be derived from the word korost 'brushwood, bushes'. The first written mention of Iskorosten’ dates back to 945 in connection with Drevlyans rebellion and Kyiv Prince Igor execution. In 946 Kyiv Princess Olga (a wife of the killed Price Igor) eliminated Drevlyan nobles and burned the town down. Ovruch became the center of Drevlyans. In 1268 the town was burned down by Mongol-Tatars. From 1340 Korosten’ was ruled by Lithuania. According to Lyublin union of 1569, Korosten’ passed to Poland and over a lengthy period was a minor Polish settlement. In 1793, after the first partition of Poland, Korosten’ passed to the Russian Empire. The growth began at the end of the 19th century with the opening of 3 furniture factories, 3 soap manufacturers, 10 productions of leather, and laying down of the railway.
