history

The exact founding date of Borschtschiw is unknown; the first documentary mention dates from the year 1456, and in 1629 the place received the city charter according to Magdeburg law . At that time, the place was in the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania in the Podolia Voivodeship . After the first division of Poland in 1772, the city fell after the first division of Poland as the eastern part of Galicia to Austria and after 1867 to Austria-Hungary and was the seat of the district administration of the Borszczów district here . The construction of the Teresin – Iwanie Puste local railway by the East Galician local railway from Chortkiv to Iwane-Puste in 1898 brought about an economic upswing for Borschtschiw.

After the collapse of the Danube Monarchy at the end of the First World War in November 1918, the city was briefly part of the West Ukrainian People's Republic . During the Polish-Ukrainian War , the newly founded Poland also occupied the last parts of the Western Ukrainian People's Republic in July 1919. On November 21, 1919, the High Council of the Paris Peace Conference awarded Eastern Galicia to Poland.

In 1919, under Józef Piłsudski , Poland conquered parts of Ukraine and with it Borschtschiw as part of the Polish-Soviet war ; until 1939, when the part of the country fell to the Ukrainian SSR , the city was Polish. Borschiw has been part of independent Ukraine since 1991.
