Tokarivka (Ukrainian: Токарівка) is a rural settlement in Voznesensk Raion, Mykolaiv Oblast, Ukraine. It belongs to Veselynove settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[2] The population was 1,989 (2022 estimate).[1]

History

Tokarivka was founded as Kolosivka, since originally it was the estate of Princess Kolosova. In 1920, it was renamed Kudriavtsivka to commemorate certain bolshevik Kudriavtsev who was responsible for the local land redistribution after the 1917 October Revolution.[3] In 1976, Kudriavtsivka was granted urban-type settlement status.[4]

On 19 May 2016, Verkhovna Rada adopted decision to rename Kudriavtsivka to Tokarivka and conform to the law prohibiting names of Communist origin.[5]

Until 18 July 2020, Tokarivka belonged to Veselynove Raion. In July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Mykolaiv Oblast to four, Veselynove Raion was merged into Voznesensk Raion.[6][7] On 26 January 2024, a new law entered into force which abolished the status of urban-type settlement status, and Tokarivka became a rural settlement.[8]
