The village of Stari Kodaky is located on the right bank of the Dnipro, south of the Dnipro, near the airport.
Its history is connected with the construction in 1635 of the Polish fortress Kodak, which opposed the Zaporizhzhia Sich. During the Hetmanship, the fortress served as a rear base for Cossack and Russian troops. Liquidated in 1711.
In 1785, the Archangelska Church was built, which was destroyed in 1937 (reconstruction is planned).
In Soviet times, a large part of the Kodaky fortress was destroyed by a granite quarry. A part of ramparts and a Cossack cemetery have been preserved.
Село Старі Кодаки розташоване на правому березі Дніпра на південь від Дніпра, в районі аеропорту.
Його історія пов'язана з будівництвом в 1635 році польської фортеці Кодак, яка протистояла Запорозькій Січі. За часів Гетьманщини фортеця служила тиловою базою козацьких і російських військ. Ліквідована в 1711 році.
В 1785 році було збудовано Архангельську церкву, яку знищили в 1937 році (планується реконструкція).
В радянські часи велика частина Кодацької фортеці була знищена гранітним кар'єром. Збереглася частина валів і козацький цвинтар.
Kodak Fortress
Historic area , Castle / fortress
The remains of the ramparts of the Polish fortress Kodak are located in a picturesque place on the high bank of the Dnipro in the village of Stari Kodaky on the southern edge of the Dnipro.
The Kodak Fortress was built by the French engineer Levasser de Boplan on the orders of the Polish King Vladyslav IV to control the Zaporizhzhians Cossacks. It was captured twice by Zaporizhzhian troops (in 1910, on the initiative of historian Dmytro Yavornytskyi, an obelisk was erected in honor of the capture of the fortress in 1648). Later, Katerynoslav (Dnipro) was founded nearby, a little further north, by Prince Hrihoriy Potomkin.
Soon the Kodak Fortress lost its importance, and in 1944 it was almost completely destroyed by a granite quarry.
