Kizman City Council House

history

The city was first mentioned in writing in 1413. It belonged to Austria-Hungary from 1774 and was in the crown land of Bukovina until 1918 . In 1798 it was granted city rights and was the seat of the district administration for the Kotzman district and the district court for the Kotzman judicial district in the Empire . After the end of the First World War, the city became part of Romania (in the Cernăuți district ). A significant German-speaking minority lived in the city itself. As recently as 1930, when the proportion of German speakers in Bukovina fell sharply as a result of belonging to Romania, 26.5% of the city's population said German as their mother tongue, compared to 66.9% Romanian.

In the course of the annexation of northern Bukovina on June 28, 1940, the city became part of the Soviet Union (again to Romania from 1941 to 1944) and has been part of Ukraine since 1991.
