Schenderiwka ( Ukrainian Шендерівка ; Russian Шендеровка Schenderowka ) is a village in Cherkassy Oblast in Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi Raion with about 950 inhabitants (2001).

location

Schenderiwka is located on the territorial road T-24-03 between the northeastern Stebliw and the southwestern Lysjanka , and about 25 km southwest of Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi . The Borowyzja brook ( Боровиця ), a tributary of the Ros, flows through the village . The village is the administrative center of a district council , which also includes the neighboring village of Nowa Buda ( Нова Буда ) with about 90 inhabitants.

history

The first documentary mention of it comes from the year 1659. At this time Ivan Wyhowskyj led the Cossacks of the area. Ivan Masepa later became a hetman in this area . A wooden Orthodox church was built in 1708, but it burned down soon after being struck by lightning. At times the village belonged to Poland-Lithuania .

In 1807 the place got the right to hold markets. After 1861 there was no more serfdom, and a population that had risen to over 2000 led to the expansion of the infrastructure, with church schools, hospitals, banks and municipal councils being built. According to the 1897 census, the population increased to 3,966 (1,899 males and 2,067 females), including 3,162 Orthodox and 761 Jewish. At the beginning of the 20th century there were also windmills and water mills in the place. In 1903 there were 5,980 inhabitants, 700 of them Jewish.

The partition of Poland made the area part of the Russian Empire . In 1917 she came to the Ukrainian People's Republic . As a result, fighting broke out and the place was occupied several times. Anton Ivanovich Denikin was able to prevail with his troops, so that Soviet authorities were set up in 1922.

In the 1920s, the communists took over the economy, which had a detrimental effect. Therefore, the previously defeated rebellious forces revived, so that the farmers were allowed traditional trade and handicrafts and a power supply was set up to the surrounding villages. Traditional culture also revived in the village. In 1929 the communists increased the pressure on veterans of the army of the Ukrainian People's Republic. Collective farms were created. In 1932 the communists took control of the food supply. People suffered from the Holodomor and more than 1,000 died of starvation. Some villagers had to work in the mines in the Donets Basin . In 1937, 19 villagers were executed at the instigation of the Interior Ministry of the USSR . In 1941 the communists fled the village because the armed forces invaded. The German occupiers deported the Jewish villagers. Of the remaining inhabitants of the village, 376 worked as Eastern workers in Germany, while others served in the Red Army . 290 villagers were killed on the fronts of World War II , out of a total of 575 local combatants.

At the beginning of 1944 the Red Army succeeded in arresting several German military units in the Cherkassy pocket. The outbreak of the German troops took place through Schenderowka, while the 57th and 88th Infantry Divisions brought up the rear and some of them were taken prisoner by the Soviets.

After the Second World War, the Soviet authorities were re-established. In 1991 they took part in the referendum on the independence of Ukraine . Since then, the local economic and demographic problems have increased. The agricultural crisis is accompanied by damage to the soil, as it is not used sustainably. Road damage has occurred as a result of increasing heavy haulage.
