history

The village was first mentioned in writing in 1331 as Targowica . The Battle of the Blue Water between the Golden Horde and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania took place near the village in autumn 1362 .

From 1773 the village in the Bracław Voivodeship of the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania was owned by Stanisław Szczęsny Potocki , a key figure behind the Targowica Confederation named after the village . Potocki joined forces with other Polish nobles who felt disadvantaged by the Polish constitution of 1791 to form this confederation, which on May 14, 1792 sent a "cry for help" to the Russian Empress Catherine the Great . This used the "cry for help" as a welcome occasion for the second partition of Poland , whereupon the place was annexed by the Russian Empire in 1793 and incorporated into the Kiev governorate . The “Call for Help from Targowica” is a symbol of betrayal in Polish historiography .
