history

The former Bernardine monastery

The place is mentioned in writing for the first time in 1559 as Wsiathin , in the same year it also received the Magdeburg town charter and then, with interruption between 1672 and 1683, when it was under Ottoman rule, until 1772 it belonged to the Podolia Voivodeship , in the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania . The landlords were initially the Kalinowski family, then the Potocki family in the 17th century. With the partitions of Poland and the drawing of the border of Galicia along the Sbrutsch, the place was divided into Husiatyn, which now belongs to Austrian Galicia , with the town center and the Russian Gusjatin from 1793 , but between 1809 and 1815, like the entire Tarnopol district, had to be completely ceded to Russia become. To this day there are 2 administratively separate locations on both sides of the river.

The place, mainly inhabited by Ukrainians, came back to the Austrian Empire after the Congress of Vienna . From 1820 the Żelski family owned the place, from 1854 to 1918 it was the seat of the Husiatyn district administration , and from 1867 a district court was added. In the period that followed, a large Jewish community developed in Husiatyn, which was completely killed or expelled during World War II. The military synagogue in the village still bears witness to the large Jewish community. On December 31, 1884, the Buczacz - Husiatyn section of the Galician Transversal Railway was opened. On January 31, 1916, the missing section between Kamjanez-Podilskyj and the Russian border near Hussjatyn was finally opened by the Russian authorities.

After the end of the First World War, the place came to Poland and from 1921 was in the Tarnopol Voivodeship , lost its town charter, was briefly occupied by the Soviet Union during World War II and then by Germany until 1944 .

After the end of the war, the city was added to the Soviet Union , where the city came to the Ukrainian SSR and has been part of today's Ukraine since 1991.

On 15 July 2015, the settlement to the center of the newly formed was settlement community Hussjatyn (Гусятинська селищна громада / Hussjatynska selyschtschna hromada ) to this are also the three villages Bodnariwka (Боднарівка) Suchodil (Суходіл) and Wilchiwtschyk (Вільхівчик).
