Since the end of the 19th century, the city was an important center of the grain trade. Pavlohrad was occupied by the Wehrmacht in October 1941 . After an uprising in February 1943, the city was liberated, but retaken after five days and finally liberated on September 18, 1943. During the war the city was 3/4 destroyed.
