history
The village was founded in 1861 as Kolonia Smyha and was initially part of the Russian Empire in the Volyn Governorate . In 1890, the then landowner of the colony, Graf Berg, brought 10 families of craftsmen from Germany to the town to promote the timber industry. The nameless place was then named by the German residents after the owner of the local sawmill Kenne and Count Berg Kenneberg . After the end of the First World War the place became a part of the Second Polish Republic ( Voivodeship Volhynia , Powiat Dubno, Gmina Sudobicze), after the outbreak of the Second World War the area was occupied by the Soviet Union and from 1941 by Germany , in 1945 it finally came to Soviet Union and was incorporated into the Ukrainian SSR . Since the independence of Ukraine in 1991, Smyha has been part of the same. Since 1981 the place has the status of an urban-type settlement.
