Ilov (Ukraine)

The village is located in a hilly area and is surrounded by forests on all sides. It stretches in a narrow valley along the small river Ilovets .

The name of the village comes from the large spruce forests that grew here in antiquity (in the Carpathians, from time immemorial they called it “Ila”). From the documents of 1570 it is known that the forest area east of the Kolodnitsa River was called Ilovets.

On a high rocky, forest-covered Tokarevskaya mountain, which rises above the southern outskirts of the village, in ancient times there was a settlement. There are still traces of two concentric defensive ramparts and ditches on this mountain. Here, from the side of the village, on a steep slope are three small caves. One of them is a cave-room, hollowed out in a rock by human hands. Obviously, in Ilovo, as well as in neighboring Stolsky , there was a hillfort and a temple of white Croats .

Probably, Ilov was mentioned under the name Ilovech in the annalistic " List of Russian cities near and far ", dated to the end of the XIV century , as one of the Podolsk cities.

It is known that in 1498, after the Tatar devastation, the king was freed by the king for six years from paying taxes in favor of the army. In those years, the village passed from one nobleman to another.

In 1512, Ilov was again released for six years from paying all kinds of taxes after the devastation by its ramparts .

In 1515, the Tatars and Wallachians completely burned, devastated and deserted the village, which then belonged to the noble family of Tarle.

In the late autumn of 1620, after another Tatars raid, only a few houses remained in the village. People were forced to flee to other villages for the winter so as not to starve to death.

Another terrible devastation fell on the village in the fall of 1648 . It was devastated by the Tatars, the church and the mill were burned, some people died out of the epidemic, some were captured.

In the village in the XIX century there was a school. In 1907, a reading room was founded by 14 peasants, but its activities did not last long and it was restored only in 1933 . But the Polish government forbade building a house for her.

In 1935, there were 100 houses in the village.

During the German occupation (1941-1944), many rural youth were sent to work in Germany. In June 1944, German punishers, pouring out their fury on the partisans, utterly burned the village and shot six of its inhabitants. The village of Ilov was one of the centers of the UPA. A printing house operated here.

In the 1950s, the village was electrified and radio-fired. A first-aid post was opened.

Since the beginning of the 1960s, the village received bus communication with the district center and Novy Rozdol.

In the 1970s, a workshop for the production of cardboard packaging began to operate in the village.
