Kropyvnytskyi (, ) is a city in central Ukraine, situated on the Inhul River. It serves as the administrative center of Kirovohrad Oblast. Population:

Over its history, Kropyvnytskyi has changed its name several times. From 1752 to 1924 the settlement was known as Yelysavethrad, or simply Yelysavet, after Empress Elizabeth of Russia. During that time it served as a garrison town and an important centre of agricultural trade. Starting from the latter third of the 19th century, Yelysavethrad was a major centre of cultural activity, known as a centre of Ukrainian theatre. During the period of industrialization, an active workers' movement emerged at the city's factories.
