History

The village was founded in 1686. According to historian Omeljan Pritsak, the etymology of the name Kytaihorod comes from the Polovtsy-Kumans.[2]

On June 12, 2020, as order of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the village became part of the Trostianets rural hromada.

On July 17, 2020, as a result of the territorial reform of Ukraine, the village became part of the Haisyn Raion from the now-abolished Trostianets Raion.[3]
