Historical background

The hamlet was founded presumably in 1907–1910 by settlers from Ukraine. By 1926, the settlement had 96 households with a population of 495 people, predominantly Ukrainians, and was part of the Novo-Voznesensky rural council. Among the famous natives of the settlement is the Soviet aeronaut A.F. Krikun, who made a series of record-breaking balloon flights. Currently, the village consists of one street and is located at the exit from the Slavgorod — Znamenka — Baevo highway, and its population is up to 50 people.
