History

[edit]

It was founded in 1913 as a khutir by re-settlers from Melitopol county, Taurida Governorate.[citation needed]

In 1930, the land around khutir was added to the Soviet state farm "Bolshevichok".

The settlement was transformed soon after the World War II when near it was established a coal mine "Dobropillia" in 1947.

In 1966, the urban-type settlement became a city.[2][3] In 1969, the population of the city was 20.6 thousand people. The basis of the economy was coal mining.[4]

In the 1980s the basis of the economy was coal mining and a mineral water plant.[3] In January 1989, the population of the city was 21.1 thousand people.[2]

In January 2013 the population was 16,101 people.[5]
