history

In the village, which was founded at the end of the 16th / beginning of the 17th century, excavation work discovered brick catacombs at a depth of several meters to protect the population from Turkish - Tatar attacks. With the second partition of Poland in 1793 , the village, like the rest of Podolia, fell to the Russian Empire . A short time later the population of the village changed from the Uniate to the Orthodox faith. Between 1873 and 1895, the Orthodox Church of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary , which was destroyed just before the start of the Second World War, was built. In documents from the 19th century, Ternivka was referred to as a city in which there was also a larger Jewish community. Their synagogue was also destroyed before the beginning of World War II and 2,400 Jews were executed near the village on May 25, 1942. During the war there was a POW camp in the village with more than 2000 inmates.
