Upon entering the village from the Upper Luzhko on the south side of the railway line, on the right bank of the Topilchanka River (a right tributary of the Dniester), at an elevation of 8-10 meters above the floodplain, a Bronze Age settlement was discovered (late 3rd to early 1st millennium BCE).
On the northeastern outskirts of the village, approximately 0.5 km in the same direction from the boarding school, where the Olenka stream flows on its right bank, a settlement of the Frankish Galstatt culture was found.
[2] In the 19th century, the settlement had its own symbolism: a seal depicting two human figures - a knight aiming a musket at a Tatar who hides behind a shield.
The local school is now named after Mykhailo Verbytskyi, a Ukrainian composer, choir conductor, Greek Catholic priest, public figure, and the author of the music for the national anthem of Ukraine, "Shche ne vmerla Ukraina" ("Ukraine's Glory Has Not Perished").
In 1992, at the initiative of a resident of the village and active community leader, Mykhailo Havrylyk, excavations were conducted on the riverbank, revealing 138 remains of human victims of the Soviet Union.
Among the numerous remains, a woman from a neighboring village recognised her son, whose hands and legs were bound with barbed wire, and his skull was smashed with a hammer.
