Bushtyno (Ukrainian: Буштино [ˈbuʃteno]; Hungarian: Bustyaháza; Romanian: Bustea; Slovak: Buštín; Yiddish: בישטינא) is a rural settlement in Tiachiv Raion, Zakarpattia Oblast, western Ukraine. Bushtyno is located in a small valley where the Tereblia and the Tisza rivers meet. The town's population was 8,506 as of the 2001 Ukrainian census. Population: 8,444 (2022 estimate).
History
The settlement was first mentioned in 1373 as the village of Bushta. In 1910, the settlement belonged to the Máramaros County of the Kingdom of Hungary. At the time the settlement was known as Bustyaháza, a Hungarian variant of the name, and contained a total of 2,056 inhabitants, the majority of which were Ruthenians.
In 1930, the settlement's Jewish population was 1,042. In 1957, Bushtyna was granted the status of an urban-type settlement. In 1995, the settlement was renamed from Bushtyna (Ukrainian: Буштина) to the current "Bushtyno." On 26 January 2024, a new law entered into force which abolished the status of an urban-type settlement, and Bushtyno became a rural settlement.
Rabbi Mordechai Leifer of Nadvorna is buried there.
