History

edit

In 1767, the colonel of the Zaporozhian Cossacks, Andrii Keynash, reported to the Kish (Ukrainian Cossack administration) that the settlement of Bobrynets was founded near the Sugoklia River. According to the document of 1777, Vasyl Ostrovsky, a former Zaporozhian Cossack, was the capacious head.[3]

In 1816, 1910 people lived in the city.

Settlement in the Yelisavetgradsky Uyezd of the Kherson Governorate of the Russian Empire.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Jewish population of the town was 3,500 inhabitants. During the Russian civil war (1918–1920), 160 Jews were killed during pogroms.

During the Holodomor in 1932–1933, at least 146 residents of the city died.[4]

Many left the city before the Germans occupied the area. In 1941, Jews were kept prisoners in a ghetto. At the beginning of 1942, 358 Jews were murdered in mass executions perpetrated in the nearby forest.[5]

In 1968, the population was 11 600 people.[6]

In 1989, the population was 12 869 people.[7][8]

In 2000, the parishioners of St. Nicholas Church joined the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kyiv Patriarchate.[9]

In 2013, the population was 10 991 people.[10]

Until 18 July 2020, Bobrynets was the administrative center of Bobrynets Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kirovohrad Oblast to four. The area of Bobrynets Raion was merged into Kropyvnytskyi Raion.[11][12]
