History
Until 1941
In the XVIII century, the village was named Solovyov in honor of Ivan Solovyov - the engineer who created the Smolensk road , paving the old seasonal road with rubble. Residents of the surrounding villages, under the leadership of Ivan Glinka, built two floating bridges across the Dnieper.
