Marhanets (lit. 'Manganese', Ukrainian: Марганець, Russian: Марганец, romanized: Marganets) is a city in Nikopol Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine. The city used to be located on the right bank of the Kakhovka Reservoir before the Reservoir’s destruction during the Russian invasion of Ukraine on the Dnieper River where the river meets one of its tributaries, the Tomakivka. Marhanets hosts the administration of Marhanets urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Its population is approximately 44,980 (2022 estimate).[2]
It was established in 1938 in place of the village of Horodyshche, which contained a manganese mine (mining town) and was called Komintern from 1926 to 1938.

History
It is considered that next to the modern city was located the Cossack Fort "Tomakivka Sich" in the 16th century that was destroyed by Tatars soon after the Kosiński Uprising.
During World War II, Marhanets was under German occupation from 17 August 1941 until 5 February 1944.[3] It was administered as a part of Reichskommissariat Ukraine. The Germans operated a forced labour camp in the town.[4]
On October 12, 2010, at least 43 people died in the Marhanets train accident.
Until 18 July 2020, Marhanets was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and the center of Marhanets Municipality. The municipality was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast to seven. The area of Marhanets Municipality was merged into Nikopol Raion.[5][6]
