Founded in 1928, until 1962 it was known as Stalinka before changing to Chervonozavodske (Ukrainian: Червонозаводське). It was the site of a large World War II tank battle involving the 2nd SS Panzer Division.[citation needed] Following the 2015 law on decommunization the city was renamed early February 2016 to its current name Zavodske.[2] The city is located on the terraces of the left bank of the Sula River in the forest-steppe zone of the Dnieper lowland in the north of the Poltava region - 12 km from the regional center of Lokhvitsa and 160 km from the city of Poltava.
