Dargovských hrdinov (literally: "(Borough) of the Dargov Heroes", Hungarian: Dargói Hősök lakótelep), commonly referred to as Furča after the hill it is built upon, is a borough (city ward) of Košice, Slovakia, located in the Košice III district.
Located largely on the side of a hill named Furča, the vast majority of the Dargovských hrdinov borough consists of housing, built mainly in the form of panel houses. There are little to no industrial structures or activities in the borough, which is one of the largest residential developments built in Slovakia during the Communist era.
