History
editThe first written mention of the village was in 1352. Former names: Yaroslav (before 1493), Khorivtsi (1493–1542), Khorzhivtsi (1542).[2]
In 1565, the owner of the village, magnate Lanckoroński, founded the town of Nove Brzhezie, whose name was transformed into the present-day Zbryzh. In 1646, Polish King Władysław IV confirmed the city's rights.[2]
In 1932–1933, the villagers suffered from the Holodomor.[2]
On 19 July 2020, as a result of the administrative-territorial reform and liquidation of the Chemerivtsi Raion, the village became part of the Kamianets-Podilskyi Raion.[3]
