history
The place Beresne was first mentioned in documents in 1445. In the 15th century, the place, which then belonged to Poland-Lithuania, was granted city rights. In 1793 the place came to the Russian Empire . At that time there were 1,086 inhabitants in Beresne. By 1897 the population grew to 3,400. After the First World War , the place came to the newly founded Second Polish Republic . In Poland this was the place with the highest percentage of Jewish population. In 1939 their share was just under 95%. After the city was captured by the Wehrmacht on July 6, 1941, pogroms broke out . The Jewish population was brought together in a ghetto . On August 25, 1942, troops of the SD , the gendarmerie and the Ukrainian police liquidated the ghetto, in which 3680 Jews were shot. After the Second World War , the place came to the Soviet Union in the course of the westward displacement of Poland and became part of the Ukrainian SSR . Due to the heavy population losses suffered during the war, the place initially only had the status of a village. In 1957 Beresne was elevated to an urban-type settlement, and Beresne has been a town again since 2000.
