History

The first mention of Ivanychi in historical documents dates back to 1545. After the Union of Lublin in 1569, the village came under the rule of noble Poland. In 1629, there were 68 households in the village. And at the beginning of 1919, Ivanychi came under the rule of Poland, and in 1939 the village was captured by Soviet troops, and it was annexed to the Ukrainian SSR. In 1995, the coat of arms and flag of Ivanychi were approved.[2]

Until 26 January 2024, Ivanychi was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Ivanychi became a rural settlement.[3]
