Kozyn (Ukrainian: Козин) is a rural settlement in Obukhiv Raion of Kyiv Oblast (province) of Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Kozyn settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population: 3,536 (2022 estimate)[2].

Kozyn is situated on the rivers Dnieper and the Kozynka, 25 km. to the south of Kyiv.

In Red Cavalry, Isaac Babel includes a one-page description of the Jewish cemetery in Kozyn. 'A cemetery in a Jewish shtetl. Assyria and the mysterious decay of the East on the weed-cluttered fields of Volyn.'[3]

Until 26 January 2024, Kozyn was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Kozyn became a rural settlement.[4]
