Kashtanova (Ukrainian: Каштанова) is a station on the Livoberezhna Line of the Kiev Light Rail system. It was opened on May 26, 2000[1] and reopened after a significant modernization of the line on October 26, 2012.[2]

Kashtanova is located in between the Teodora Draizera and Henerala Vatutina stations.

At one point the Kiev City authorities proposed creating the "Vulytsia Kashtanova" station of the Kiev Metro's Livoberezhna Line, although that entire project was scrapped in favor of expanding the existing light rail system.[3]
