## About

Velykodolynske is a settlement southwest of Odesa, near the Black Sea coast. It began as a German colonist settlement and retains an important place in the history of the Black Sea Germans.

## Notes

German Grossliebental/Gross Liebenthal names the colonist settlement. References give Bolshaya Akkarzha from 1918 and the current name from 1945; boundaries and successive local administrative units should not be assumed identical.
