About
Kivsharivka is a settlement south of Kupiansk in Kharkiv Oblast, on the Oskil River. It grew in connection with the Kupiansk foundry and the nearby railway district.
Notes
Ukrainian land-agency registers distinguish settlement Ківшарівка from station Ковшарівка. French heading is an editorial transcription; broad French usage not verified. Kovsharivka is retained in this note only, because the official register applies it to the railway station.
