Kolomak is an old Cossack town of the Sloboda Ukraine where Hetman Ivan Mazepa signed a treaty with Russia.

It was a village in Valky uyezd of Kharkov Governorate of the Russian Empire.

During World War II it was under German occupation from October 1941 to September 1943.

On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Kolomak became a rural settlement.
