The history of the name of the city of Berezan
Berezan is a city of regional subordination in the Kiev region, located on the Nedra River (left tributary, Dnieper basin) 79 kilometers east of Kiev (by road). The population is 16,527 people (according to the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine as of January 1, 2012). According to the main version, the name Berezan comes from the name of the Berezanka River, which flows into the Nedra near the city. The second-order subsoil tributary Sukhoberezitsa has a similar name. The names of these rivers are explained by the natural conditions of the area along which they flow. Birch forests were located along the banks of the Berezanka River. Sukhoberezitsa has dry shores. The first written mention of Berezan is found in the lustration of the Pereyaslavl eldership of the Kiev Voivodeship in 1616. According to this lustration, the inhabitants of the town do not bear any duties, except for the military. In the lustration for 1620, it is indicated that in the townships of Pereyasla the elders of Berezan, Bykov, Yablonov and Mirgorod make saltpeter, which allegedly brings a lot of income per year. The acts of the Lublin Tribunal of the late 16th-early 17th centuries make it possible to establish that Berezan, as a new or existing settlement at the beginning of the 17th century, was replenished by fugitive peasants from the Right-Bank Ukraine, mainly from Khodorkov. In the first half of the 17th century (before the uprising led by Bohdan Khmelnitsky), Berezan was part of the Pereyaslavl eldership, which until 1620 was owned by Prince Janusz Ostrozhsky. After the death of Janusz of the Ostroh settlement, Berezan, Bykov, Yablonov and Mirgorod were separated from the Pereyaslavl eldership and by the privilege of Sigismund III in 1620 were transferred to the development of saltpeter to Jan Chernyshevsky, and in 1621, by another royal privilege, the production of saltpeter in the Kiev Voivodeship and throughout Ukraine was transferred to the Komor (to the assistant judge on disputes about the boundaries of estates) Bartolomey Obalkovsky, who, after Yan Chernyshevsky, came into the possession of Berezan, Bykov, Yablonov and Mirgorod with farms and settlements belonging to these settlements. From about 20-30s of the 17th century, Berezan became the center of the Berezan Hundreds of the Pereyaslavsky Regiment. At the beginning of the uprising of 1648-1654, Bohdan Khmelnitsky sent ambassadors to Prince Jeremiah Vishnevetsky with a letter in which he explained the reasons for the uprising of the Cossacks and proposed not to raise weapons against the insurgents. The envoys found Jeremiah Vishnevetsky and handed him a letter when he was near Berezan. After reading the letter, Jeremiah Vishnevetsky became so furious that he ordered the execution of the ambassadors who had brought him. In 1674, hetman Ivan Samoilovich, with his wagon, assigned the estates he had acquired, including Berezan, to the Pereyaslavl Colonel Dmitrashka Raich, and in 1688 Ivan Mazepa gave him a second wagon for the same estates. According to the "General Investigation of Scraps" (census of estates), carried out in all ten regiments of the Left-Bank Ukraine in 1729-1731, there were 37 households in Berezan and it was owned by the descendants of the former Pereyaslavl Colonel Dmitrashka Raich. In 1764, the Pereyaslavsky regiment, in which the Berezanskaya hundred was located, became part of the newly created Little Russian province. After the elimination of the regimental structure in the Left-Bank Ukraine and the reorganization of the Little Russian province into the Kiev, Chernigov and Novgorod-Seversk viceroyalty in 1782, Berezan was ranked among the Pereyaslavsky uezd of the Kiev governorship. In 1796, the Little Russian province was restored, and Berezan was on the territory of the Pereyaslavsky district until the division in 1802 of the Little Russian province into Chernigov and Poltava. Since 1802, Berezan is the center of the Pereyaslavsky district of the Poltava province. As a result of the next administrative-territorial reform of 1922-1923, when counties were replaced by districts and volosts by districts, Berezan became the regional center of the Kiev district. In 1932, after the liquidation of the districts, Berezan became the regional center of the newly created Kiev region. From 1962 to 1965, the village of Berezan was part of the Pereyaslav-Khmelnitsky district of the Kiev region. In 1994, Berezan was assigned to the category of cities of regional subordination of the Kiev region.

The history of Berezan
Berezan was founded at the beginning of the 17th century. immigrants from the Right-Bank Ukraine, in particular from the town of Khodorkov, who fled here from the oppression of Polish and Ukrainian feudal lords. The name probably comes from the fact that at that time there were large birch groves in this area.
Berezan was first mentioned in 1616. It was the town of the Pereyaslavl Starostva of the Kiev Voivodeship and in 1620 belonged to the tycoon J. Ostrozhsky.
The area abounded in raw materials for obtaining saltpeter, which, in a mixture with birch coal and sulfur powder, was used to produce gunpowder. Therefore, in 1620, the Polish government allocated Berezan with the environs, as well as other areas rich in saltpeter in the Pereyaslav region, into a special state estate under the management of the royal administrator. In addition to the existing duties in favor of the state, the peasants had to guard the saltpeter industries and transport the saltpeter.
In May 1648, the rebels led by Bohdan Khmelnytsky won the first victories over the Polish gentry army. After the liberation of Berezan from the Polish gentry, it became the centenary of the Pereyaslav regiment.
At the beginning of the 18th century. Berezan became the property of the descendants of R. Dumitrashko-Raich - the landowners of Dmitrashka, as well as the Lukashevichs, Markovich and others, who owned it until 1917.
During the first half of the 18th century. local landowners continued to seize land from the free population, turning the bourgeoisie, as well as the Cossacks and peasants of the surrounding villages into their subjects.
In connection with the elimination of the regimental organization on the Left Bank by the tsarist government, Berezan lost its importance as a town of centennial. Since 1802, Berezan became a volost town in the Pereyaslavsky district of the Poltava province.
In 1753, the outstanding Ukrainian philosopher and poet G.S. Pan. He often visited the local landowner Y. Lukashevich, whose son P.Ya. Lukashevich (circa 1806-1887) was a well-known collector and publisher of Ukrainian folk songs and compiler of the collection "Little Russian and Red-Russian People's Dumas and Songs", published in 1836. In October 1843 in Berezan 'to P.Ya. Lukashevich visited T.G. Shevchenko. Here he wrote the poem "Rozrita grave", in which he outlined the plight of the oppressed Ukrainian people. In Berezan, the poet first got acquainted with the Galician literary anthology "The Dniester Mermaid" and collected information about the stay in the town of GS. Frying pans.
On the eve of the abolition of serfdom, in 1859, there were 399 households and 3466 people in the town. At that time, a saltpeter plant continued to operate here, the products of which were sent to Shostka.
In addition to agriculture, the peasants in the fall and winter were engaged in weaving, felt production, cooperage both for their own needs and to order. Weaving products were sold at fairs. At the end of the XIX century. in Berezan there were several small enterprises - a steam mill, poor people and a brewery owned by local bourgeoisie, as well as a distillery built in 1892 by the landowner I. Markevich.
Although Berezan was the volost center of the Pereyaslav district, from educational institutions in 1902 only the rural primary public school worked here, where 143 students studied. The overwhelming majority of the inhabitants remained illiterate. So, according to the census of 1887, only 176 men and two women were able to write and read.
The Stolypin reform did not improve the economic situation of the peasants. The process of landlessness and class stratification continued.
In 1927 in Berezan, the film director Arnold Kurdyum shot one of the first full-length Ukrainian films "Dzhalma".
Berezan was an important strategic point on the outskirts of Kiev and passed from hand to hand more than once during the civil war.

For two years Berezan was occupied by the Nazis and was badly damaged. In September 1943, the settlement was liberated by the troops of the Voronezh Front. Post-war reconstruction began.
