History
Until 18 July 2020, Nyzhni Sirohozy was the administrative center of Nyzhni Sirohozy Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kherson Oblast to five. The area of Nyzhni Sirohozy Raion was merged into Henichesk Raion.[3][4]
Until 26 January 2024, Nyzhni Sirohozy was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Nyzhni Sirohozy became a rural settlement.[5]
