During the second half of the twelfth century and the early thirteenth century, the city was the center of an independent principality.

After the battle of the Irpen against the Lithuanian armed forces of Prince Gediminas , which was lost for the united armed forces of the southern Russian principalities, in 1321 the city could not maintain its defense against the Lithuanians and became part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania . After the Battle of Wedrosch in 1500, the city was incorporated into the Grand Duchy of Moscow . During the "time of turmoil" at the beginning of the 17th century, Putwyl was the center of the uprising of Ivan Bolotnikov and briefly a base for pseudodimitri I.

Until the October Revolution , the city belonged to the Kursk Governorate of the Russian Empire , then to the RSFSR , and from October 16, 1925, the city became part of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic . On September 10, 1941, the city was occupied by Wehrmacht troops and became the starting point of the guerrilla war of the Soviet partisans .
