Oreanda (Ukrainian and Russian: Ореанда; Crimean Tatar: Oreanda) is an urban-type settlement in the Yalta Municipality of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, a territory recognized by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine and annexed by Russia as the Republic of Crimea.[3]

Oreanda is administratively subordinate to the Livadiya Settlement Council.[1][3] The urban-type settlement's population was 887 as of the 2001 Ukrainian census.[3] Current population: 835 (2014 Census).[4]

Geography

Oreanda is located on Crimea's southern shore at an elevation of 197 metres (646 ft).[2] The settlement is located 5 km (3.1 mi) from Yalta. The Khrestova peak of the Crimean Mountains is located in Oreanda.

History

Oreanda was first mentioned in Peter Simon Pallas's 1793 book Journey through various provinces of the Russian Empire as Urhenda (Cyrillic: Ургенда).[5]

In the first half of the 19th century, Oreanda belonged to the House of Potocki; it later became a part of the Russian tsar's territory. From 1842-1852, a Greek Revival palace was built in Oreanda by architect Andrei Stackenschneider. The American writer Mark Twain once stayed at the palace before it burned down in 1882.

In the 1940s-1950s, two sanatoriums were built in Oreanda, one of which was designed by Soviet Constructivist architect Moisei Ginzburg.

In culture

A scene in Anton Chekhov's short story The Lady with the Dog, published in 1899, takes place in Oreanda.[6]
