From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kitsman (Ukrainian: Кіцмань, translit. Kitsman’, Romanian: Cozmin, German: Kotzman) is a city located in the Chernivtsi Oblast (province) of western Ukraine. It is the administrative center of the Kitsmansky Raion (district), and is located at around .
The first historical mention of Kitsman is dated to 1413, which also appears on the city's crest. Codrii Cozminului, forests situated between Siret and Prut valleys, are named so because they are traversed by the roads that connect Suceava, the middle age capital of the Principality of Moldavia, with what was then its boundary town Cozmin.
Kitsman is the birthplace of musicians Volodymyr Ivasyuk and Iryna Bilyk.
