Tsebrykove (Ukrainian: Цебрикове; Russian: Цебриково, German: Hoffnungstal) is an urban-type settlement with some 2,900 inhabitants in the Velyka Mykhailivka Raion, Odessa Oblast in Ukraine. It is located about 80 km (50 mi) east of Tiraspol and about 140 km (87 mi) northwest of Odessa. Population: 2,854 (2015 est.)
Before World War II Tsebrykove was known as Hoffnungstal, Гофнунгсталь, and was populated by Germans. Hoffnungstal was founded in 1819 by Swabian settlers who were granted land. Some of them were Zionists who intended to go on to Palestine and settle there but were refused entry by Turkey. Some of that group settled in the Ukraine and some in Georgia. There is an active group of Germans from Russia who study the history of the area. Residents of Hoffnungstal supported the Whites during the Russian Civil war and the town was bombarded by artillery mounted on railway cars. The struggle over collectivization resulted in many deportations and deaths including a number of people shot on the front steps of the Lutheran church in 1937. Nearly all of the remaining Germans left with the retreating German army during World War II. Many German immigrants from Tsebrykove to the United States homesteaded about 12 miles northwest of Burlington, Colorado in the "Russian Settlement."
On 7 March 1923 Tsebrykove Raion with the administrative center in Tsebrykove was established. On 30 December 1962 Tsebrykove Raion was abolished and merged into Velyka Mykhailivka Raion.
