The village of Sukhyi Lyman is a southwestern suburb of Odesa. It is located on the shore of the estuary of the same name, connected by a channel to the Black Sea.
Sukhyi Lyman was founded as a small village at the beginning of the 19th century. Remains of Bronze Age settlements (II millennium BC) and Scythian times (IV-III centuries BC) were discovered near the village.
During the Second World War, the line of defense of Odesa passed through the territory of the village. In memory of this, the so-called "Belt of Glory" was laid: a wide forest strip 60 kilometers long, which curved in a semicircle from the village of Dofinivka to Sukhyi Lyman.
