History
Rozvadiv was first mentioned in 1467. Soon after its establishment, the village was destroyed by the armies of Meñli I Giray, although it was quickly rebuilt. Rozvadiv was again destroyed in the autumn of 1855, this time by a fire.[2]
Since 2019, Rozvadiv has been home to Rozvadiv Building Materials TOV, a limestone and sand mining company under the Kovalska Industrial-Construction Group.[3]
A gas leak occurred at a drilling rig in Rozvadiv on 26 April 2023. As a result, 29 individuals were required to evacuate from their homes, and the supply of gas to the village was temporarily stopped.[4]
