Skala-Podilska (Ukrainian: Скала-Подільська, romanized: Skala-Podilʹsʹka; Polish: Skała Podolska; Yiddish: סקאַלע, romanized: Skala; Hebrew: סקאלה, romanized: Skala) or Skala upon Zbruch (Ukrainian: Скала-над-Збручем, romanized: Skala-nad-Zbruchem; Polish: Skała nad Zbruczem; German: Skala am Sbrutsch) is a rural settlement in Chortkiv Raion, Ternopil Oblast, Ukraine over the Zbruch River. It hosts the administration of Skala-Podilska settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine. Population: 4,094 (2022 estimate).
It was, at one time, named simply "Skala", however the town compounded its name, variously, to "Skala upon Zbruch", in order to distinguish itself from another town with that same name.
