Burkut (Ukrainian: Буркут) is a village in the Zelene rural hromada of the Verkhovyna Raion of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast in Ukraine.[1] It is located on the river Chornyi Cheremosh in the Hutsul Beskyds, not far from Verkhovyna.[2]
History
The village has been known from the 17th century.[3] Starting from the 18th century it became a popular mineral spa. During the First World War the resort was destroyed and hasn't been restored since then.[2]
Since 2008, no regular inhabitants have been registered in Burkut. In modern times, several houses in the village are being leased for visitors.[4]
On 19 July 2020, as a result of the administrative-territorial reform and liquidation of the Verkhovyna Raion, the village became part of the Verkhovyna Raion.[5]
Notable residents
The family of Ivan Franko, Lesya Ukrainka, and Klyment Kvitka were vacationing in Burkut. Also, Mariyka Pidhiryanka, Olha Kobylianska, Mykola Mikhnovskyi, and Oleksandr Kulchytskyi visited the village.[3][6][7]
