A short historical reference.






Hlukhiv is a town of more than ten centuries. It was founded on the hills by our ancestors many centuries ago as a fortress for the defence against any enemies. The history of Hlukhiv is unusual. It has many riddles and mysteries. The history and legends flowed here together. They were created by well known and unknown chroniclers, architects, warriors and poets.

One of the most ancient Ukrainian towns Hlukhiv was first mentioned in Ipathy's chronicle in 1152. Indirect historical sources also mention the town in 992. However, the town of Hlukhiv appeared much earlier as a Slavic settlement. Archaeological discoveries of the last years provide evidence of that, particularly discoveries from the Early-Zarubynetska (I century BC – I century AD) and Kolochynska (VI-VII centuries) cultures.

The town became a center of Hlukhiv's specific principality just before the invasion of the Mongolian Tatars on Rus. From the Chernihiv branch of the Rurykoviches the Hlukhivan Princes descended. Since 1247, successors of Chernihivan Prince Mykhaylo Vsevolodovych ruled here. Their ruling continued a little more than 100 years, until the beginning of the Roman Symenovich Novosilsky's rule. Great parcels of land between Hlukhiv and Novosil, and also the upper reaches of the Oka river, with towns Mtsensk, Belyov, Novosil, Vorotynsk, Odoyev belonged to Hlukhiv Princes, who were at the same time the princes of Novosil.

In the second part of the XIV century Lithuania joined the Chernihiv-Siversk land, in which Hlukhiv was. There is an argument that it could have happened in 1320 at the time of the conquest of Kyiv and the left bank of the Dnipro by the Great Lithuanian Prince Gedimin. In the summer of 1352 the plague came from Western Europe and spread over great regions of Rus, including Hlukhiv. This year the Hlukhiv Prince moved to Novosil and since then he was called Roman Symeonovych Novosilsky.

Due to the Krevska union in 1385, which unified the Great Lithuanian principality with the Polish Kingdom, the territory of Hlukhiv belonged to the new Polish-Lithuanian Power. However, the town fell under Russian Power in 1503 after the victory of the Russian troops over Lithuania during the war of 1500-1503. In 1618, according to the Deulinsk armistice, which was signed after the following war between the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth and Russia, Hlukhiv became a part of Rich Pospolyta (Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth). It became a frontier town on Moscovy lands and also trading town. Foreseeing future struggles between Poland and Russia, Hlukhiv was strengthened and intensively expanded by Polish Power. These were especially promoted by the Polyanovsky Peace, which consolidated a geopolitical advantage in favor of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, which signed it with Russia in 1634. Poland gave to Hlukhiv the Magdeburg charter.
