history

The settlement was mentioned in writing for the first time in 1501 and then belonged to the Principality of Moldova until 1775 . After that it was part of Austria in the crown land of Bukovina.

After the end of the First World War , the village became part of Romania (in Rădăuţi County ). In the course of the annexation of northern Bukovina on June 28, 1940, it became part of the Soviet Union (again to Romania between 1941 and 1944) and has been part of Ukraine since 1991. In 1961 it was elevated to an urban-type settlement.
