Shevchenkivskyi District (Ukrainian: Шевченківський район) is a right-bank urban district of the city of Dnipro, located in southern Ukraine. It is formerly known as Babushkinskyi District.
History
The district was formed on 12 April 1973 from the territory of Zhovtnevyi, Kirovskyi and Krasnohvardiiskyi districts and was named after Russian Bolshevik revolutionary Ivan Babushkin. On 26 November 2015 the district was renamed by the Dnipropetrovsk city council to its current name to comply with decommunization laws. The district is now named after the poet, writer, artist and political figure Taras Shevchenko.

Note: In May 2015 President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko signed a bill into law that started a six-month period for the removal of communist monuments and the mandatory renaming of settlements with a name related to Communism. Hence Topograph in Dnipro was renamed in order to comply with these decommunization law. The city's name also changed from Dnipropetrovsk to its current name Dnipro in 2016.
