history

The place was founded in 1782 by immigrants from the Poltava province with the original name Kamjanka (Ukrainian Кам'янка ), after the river flowing in the place. In the first half of the 18th century the settlement was called Belmanka (Ukrainian Бельманка ). Due to the migration of farmers from the northern provinces of Ukraine, the population grew rapidly, so that in 1795 159 men and 130 women lived in the village. In 1859 the population had grown to 4,451 people. The settlers were mainly engaged in animal husbandry and agriculture.

From 1845 the village was called Zarekostjantyniwka (Ukrainian Царекостянтинівка ) and in 1926 it was renamed Perschotrawnewe (Ukrainian Першотравневе ). From 1930 to 1935 the village was called Zarekostjantyniwka again and was then called Kujbyschewe (Ukrainian Куйбишеве) until May 12, 2016, after which it was renamed to its current name based on the historical name in the 18th century as part of the Ukrainian decommunization .

On October 6, 1941, the place was occupied by the Wehrmacht and liberated by the Red Army on September 15, 1943 . Bilmak has had urban-type settlement status since 1957.
