History
editThe first written record of its mention dates from 1561. But archaeological studies indicate that in this location people lived in the days of Kievan Rus and Principality of Galicia–Volhynia. That are approximately the year 1240.[6]
Until 18 July 2020, Verkhnie Syniovydne belonged to Skole Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Lviv Oblast to seven. The area of Skole Raion was merged into Stryi Raion.[7][8]
Until 26 January 2024, Verkhnie Syniovydne was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Verkhnie Syniovydne became a rural settlement.[9]
