'''Solotvyn''' ({{langx|uk|Солотвин}}, {{langx|pl|Sołotwina}}) is a [rural settlement](/source/Populated_places_in_Ukraine) in [Ivano-Frankivsk Raion](/source/Ivano-Frankivsk_Raion) of [Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast](/source/Ivano-Frankivsk_Oblast), 40&nbsp;km from [Ivano-Frankivsk](/source/Ivano-Frankivsk). Solotvyn hosts the administration of [Solotvyn settlement hromada](/source/Solotvyn_settlement_hromada), one of the [hromada](/source/hromada)s of Ukraine.<ref name="admreform_2020_solotvyn">{{cite web |title=Солотвинская громада |url=https://gromada.info/ru/obschina/solotvyn/ |publisher=Портал об'єднаних громад України |language=ru}}</ref> Its estimated population was {{Ua-pop-est2022|3,692}}.

Solotvyn is on the [Bystrytsia Solotvynska](/source/Bystrytsia_Solotvynska), the left of the two long headstreams of the [Bystrytsia River](/source/Bystrytsia_River) (a tributary of the [Dniester](/source/Dniester)), at the foot of the [Carpathian Mountains](/source/Carpathian_Mountains). In the seventeenth century it was named ''Krasnopil''.

==History==
Until 18 July 2020, Solotvyn belonged to [Bohorodchany Raion](/source/Bohorodchany_Raion). The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast to six. The area of Bohorodchany Raion was merged into Ivano-Frankivsk Raion.<ref>{{Cite news|title=Про утворення та ліквідацію районів.

Until 26 January 2024, Solotvyn was designated [urban-type settlement](/source/urban-type_settlement). On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Solotvyn became a rural settlement.<ref name="glavnoe">{{cite news |title=Что изменится в Украине с 1 января |url=https://glavnoe.in.ua/ru/novosti/chto-yzmenytsya-v-ukrayne-s-1-yanvarya |work=glavnoe.in.ua |lang=ru| date=1 January 2024}}</ref>
