History
The village was established in 1501 by a legendary blacksmith Myna Nazarenko. In 1753 here was built a wooden church of St. Volodymyr dedicated to Vladimir the Great. In 1797 Kovalivka became a center of volost within the Vasylkiv county. During the Soviet period, the village housed the Shchors collective farm (kolkhoz) which after dissolution of the Soviet Union was reorganized into an agro firm "Svitanok".
Since 1985 Kovalivka is dominated by a local agrarian company "Svitanok" (meaning "Dawn"), formerly "Shchors Kolkhoz" which is controlled by the Zasukha family (Anatoliy and Tetiana). In 1996 in the village was built a Church of Nativity of the Theotokos (Ukrainian Orthodox Church). In 2007 in Kovalivka started to be built a convent of St.Anastasia dedicated to the Russian Grand Duchess Alexandra Petrovna of Oldenburg (Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate), UOC-MP). Since 2009 Kovalivka hosts ethnic festival "Zhnyva" (Reaping). In 2014 in the village was opened the Church of St.Tetiana dedicated to Tatiana of Rome (UOC-MP).
