Кропивницький (колишній Кіровоград) - відносно молоде місто, великий промисловий центр. Розташоване у верхній течії річки Інгул на південь від Черкас. У XVI-XVIII ст. в цих місцях існували козацькі зимівники, зокрема хутори Інгульський та Лелеківка (зараз міські райони). Нинішнє місто засноване в 1754 році як фортеця Св. Єлисавети за рішенням російської імператриці Єлизавети Петрівни для захисту від турків і кримських татар (збереглися вали). Втративши оборонне значення, в 1784 році Єлисаветград отримав права міста. З початку XIX ст. стає центром військових поселень на півдні України. Середина XIX ст. - період активного будівництва, забудова історичного центру частково збереглася. Розвитку посприяли промисловці Ельворті. Тут бували поети О. Пушкін і А. Міцкевич. В 1929 році місто перейм ...

Кропивницьким та І. Тобілевичем (Карпенком-Карим), що став колискою українського театру. Історичний центр зберігає чарівний провінційний дух.
