Kherson was founded in 1778 by a Grigori Aleksandrovich Potemkin, on the orders of Catherine the Great. The city was built on the site of a small fortress called Aleksandr-Shants. During the German occupation in World War 2 a small group of Ukrainian Underground Resistance fighters operated in Kherson as OUN(B). The group was eventually liquidated when the Germans arrested 8 members on August 12, 1942. Kherson is a developed industrial and agrarian part of south Ukraine. The regions coastline stretches for 120 km and is home to many sanatoriums, rest houses, children camps and boarding houses.
