Created in 1923, it was known as Artemivsk Raion from 1924 to 2016 after its administrative center. Due to the Russo-Ukrainian War, three smaller municipalities were transferred away from Yenakiieve municipality and transferred to Bakhmut Raion (at that time Artemivsk Raion), among which are Vuhlehirsk municipality, Olkhovatka municipality, and Bulavynske municipality. On 4 February 2016, the Verkhovna Rada renamed raion to Bakhmut Raion.[3]
On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Donetsk Oblast was reduced to eight, of which only five were controlled by the government, and the area of Bakhmut Raion was significantly expanded. [4][5] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 105,040 (2020 est.)[6]
Within Bakhmut Raion there are six cities (Bakhmut, Chasiv Yar, Siversk, Soledar, Svitlodarsk, and Vuhlehirsk), and eight urban-type settlements.
