Lubny (, ), historically also called Lubni () is a city in Poltava Oblast, central Ukraine. It serves as the administrative center of Lubny Raion. It also hosts the administration of , one of the hromadas of Ukraine. Population:

==History== Lubny is reputed to be one of the oldest cities in Ukraine, allegedly founded in 988 by knyaz (prince) Vladimir the Great (Volodymyr) of Kyiv. The first written record, however, dates from 1107, when a battle against the Polovtsians took place nearby. The settlement was originally known as Luben (). Initially, it was a small wooden fortress above the Sula River.
