History

Wychwatyńce, as it was known in Polish, was a private village of the Lubomirski family, [2] administratively located in the Bracław County in the Bracław Voivodeship in the Lesser Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. [3] It was a small trading port on the Dniester river. Following the Second Partition of Poland, it was annexed by Russia, within which it formed part of the Podolian Governorate. In the late 19th century, it had a population of 703. [2]

In 1924, it became part of the Moldavian Autonomous Oblast, which was soon converted into the Moldavian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, and the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1940 during World War II. From 1941 to 1944, it was administered by Romania as part of the Transnistria Governorate.

According to the 2004 census, the population of the village was 1,218 inhabitants, of which 1,072 (88.01%) were Moldovans (Romanians), 64 (5.25%) Ukrainians and 60 (4.92%) Russians. [4]
