History

It was founded in 1794 by Cossacks of the Black Sea Cossack Army as Korenovskoye (Корено́вское), called so to commemorate a kurin of the same name in the Zaporozhian Host, which, in turn, was named after the village of Korenivka in today's Zhytomyr Oblast of Ukraine.

Since the end of the 19th century, it had been known as the stanitsa of Korenovskaya (Корено́вская). Town status was granted to it in 1961.
