History

The village of Churylivtsi was first mentioned in 1453. It was a part of the Kingdom of Poland and belonged to various Polish noble families, since the 17th century to the family of Kossakowski. It was located in the Podolian Voivodeship of the Lesser Poland Province of the Polish Crown. In 1793, after the Second Partition of Poland, the whole area was transferred to the Russian Empire.[2] In Russia, it was a part of Ushitsky Uyezd of Podolian Governorate. On January 31, 1923 the uyezds were abolished.[3] The Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic was established, and Murovani Kurylivtsi became the administrative center of the newly established Murovani Kurylivtsi Raion, which was a part of Mohyliv-Podilskyi Okruha. In 1925, the governorate was abolished, and okruhas were directly subordinated to Ukrainian SSR. In 1930, okruhas were abolished as well, and on February 27, 1932 Vinnytsia Oblast was established.[3] In 1991, the Soviet Union was abolished, and Murovani Kurylivtsi became a part of independent Ukraine.
