Vysokohirne (uk|Високогірне; ru|Высокогорное) is a rural 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.[2]
Previously, the settlement was known as the Tuzler village (crh|Tüzler). Following the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948 renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.[3]
Vysokohirne is located on Crimea's southern shore at an elevation of 695m (2,280feet).[1] The settlement is located 7km (04miles) southwest from Livadiya, which it is administratively subordinate to.[2] [4] Its population was 137 in the 2001 Ukrainian census.[2] Current population:
